Study Tips for Infection Control
- Memorize the 5 moments for hand hygiene — before patient contact is the single most tested moment.
- Know the correct order to put on (don) and remove (doff) PPE: gown → mask → goggles → gloves; remove in reverse.
- Standard precautions apply to ALL patients, not just those with known infections.
- When in doubt on an isolation question, full contact precautions is almost always the safer choice.
