Healthy Hand Washing & Drying
Using Gloves
- Use of gloves does not eliminate the need for sanitary hand washing and drying.
- Gloves should be put on hands in such a way that touching unclean surfaces, clothing, or other parts of the body does not contaminate them.
- Gloves should be changed at regular intervals (at least once per hour), after touching contaminated surfaces or utensils, or if punctured.
- Gloves should be changed after sneezing, coughing, or touching of the face, hair or unsanitized clothing.
- Be mindful of possible glove allergies and the possibility of food products or chemicals entering the glove, causing adverse consequences.
- hand washing and drying should ALWAYS occur before, after and between glove changes.
