Proper glove use means:

Proper glove use means:

• A. Change/discard gloves between tasks and students.
• B. Reuse gloves for the entire day.
• C. Use gloves only when hands look dirty.
• D. Gloves are optional for routine tasks.

Answer: (A)

Gloves are a barrier for infection control and must be changed between tasks and between students to prevent cross-contamination. If you help one student with a spill and then assist another without changing, germs can transfer from one person or surface to the next. Change gloves after completing one activity and before starting another, and always wash your hands before putting on a new pair or after removing them. Discard gloves after exposure to bodily fluids and during transitions between different care tasks. Reusing gloves for the entire day increases the risk of spreading germs. Gloves aren’t optional for routine tasks that involve potential contact with bodily fluids or contaminated surfaces, and they don’t replace proper hand hygiene.
