CNA Skill How to Remove Vinyl Gloves

[llllllllIIlllllllIIl]

Piece of cake. Learned this in nursing class

[tanzey18]

cna"s can have long nails as long as they wash there hands frequently and wear gloves then there good

[lexichronicle2]

I always take my gloves off like that. Because they'll either be caked in paint if I'm doing stuff around the house or filthy toxic chemicals if I'm doing some experiment in the garage.

You probably shouldn't be working with health care if you can't get into a habit that simple. It's pretty much the founding stone of germ control, Semmelweis and his hand washing.

For a minute there I thought those were the arms of men until I saw the finger nails. Those arms are hairier than mine.

@RECON4NOW i didnt notice the first time i watched but you're right - those are some hairy arms! eww!

@MrPerfectHour I guess if your junk has 8 fingers and 2 thumbs, then, yeah.

hey this was real good...just like our instructor told us but she also explained that after we put gloves on we are suppose to check to see if they are torn or have holes in them...i love this video it explains it good.

cna cant have nails like that

[makiatia]

@colinstingeray you're right.

The gloves were removed properly, however, those longs nails wouldn't be acceptable in the field. They are a potential hazard. The could break the glove and/or harbor infection. Keep up the good video instruction. It probably helps a lot of people. Remember real world isn't like school though. They come off a lot faster on the job.

This is proper technique but I havent seen anyone take their gloves off carefully like this unless their hands are covered in BM,blood or when the nurse is doing a dressing change and fluid from the wound gets on their hands. Other than that everyone just pulls them off quick and carelessly. I noticed a lot of what is learned in school is not done in real life work situations.

@kirz778 We've done it this way everywhere I've worked. If the people where you work are not doing it this way, it should be reported. Maybe everyone at your job needs a reminder. It's a violation of safety regulations not to follow this procedure for removing dirty gloves. Besides, it's professional. The people at your job should take some pride in being professionals and do it the right way.
