Order of removal is a nightmare. Reverse of fitting would be usual, but the procedure of removing apron and gloves in the main infected space and masks and eye protection outside it change everything. The most important thing is hand sanitizing between each step.
Why has the PPE advice suddenly changed for frontline workers collecting swabs for suspected COVID-19 patients in that they no longer need to wear Full PPE incl. respirator masks, face shields, long sleeved aprons and only need to use hand gel instead of washing hands? Is there new research to support this? Has there been a risk assessment for this change in advice? Thanks
If detergent (soap) and hand gel are so encouraged and spectacles can just be wiped, how come the eye protective mask, which I assume is plastic? and similar to spectacles, cannot too be washed in detergent or wiped with gel even though it is in front of the spectacles to be used again as it is such a waste to see a plastic eye mask being disposed of after just one patient use. In an Age where plastic pollution is high on Political and Social Agenda, are we not using fabric Aprons that can be washed, like uniform, at high temperature in detergent and then re-used (as in the old days) because the virus left on a plastic apron will be rife in the bin for how long? Not good surely each time you open the bin to add more plastic aprons and gloves, virus may 'pop out'?? Also if the Aprons are plastic then they are wipeable so why not wipe them down with disinfectant wipes and re-use, again, if detergents and alcohol wipes are so effective as we are constantly informed......I see mass waste that seems over the top in some areas and then no masks in others where there is risk.....not medical so maybe I just dont understand but the plastic aprons dont cover all uniform after all.
I think they said visors can be reused. Use one wipe for outside, then a different one for inside. Its what i do anyway for my 1 patient that I reuse it for.
Because glaves are the most contaminated items and you'll touch your clothes/neck/hair while taking off the apron. That can lead to cross contamination.
how about guidance for putting on in wind and rain outside patients homes!

COVID19 was classed as a High Consequence Infectious Disease up until 19th March when it was removed from the list. PPE guidance changed with that.

Thank you for the good advice
Thank you
Needs hand hygiene step between removing apron and putting hands anywhere near face. CDC guidance better in this regard.
Thanks information

Why not take the apron off first before gloves
Because glaves are the most contaminated items and you'll touch your clothes/neck/hair while taking off the apron. That can lead to cross contamination.
Total nonsense
