Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Donning and Doffing Procedures
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is intended to prevent contact with the infectious agent, or body fluid that may contain the infectious agent, by creating a barrier between the worker and the infectious material. Gloves protect the hands, gowns or coveralls protect the skin and/or clothing, masks and respirators protect the mouth and nose, and face shields protect the entire face.
