Proper use of protective clothing involves several steps: 1. Donning (Putting On): Ensure hands are clean before putting on protective clothing. Follow a specific order: gown, mask/respirator, goggles/face shield, and gloves. 2. Doffing (Taking Off): Remove gloves first, followed by goggles/face shield, gown, and mask/respirator. Perform hand hygiene immediately after removing each piece of clothing. 3. Disposal: Dispose of single-use protective clothing in designated biohazard containers. Reusable items should be cleaned and disinfected according to established protocols.
