Guidance on Personal Protective Equipment
After completing the donning process, the integrity of the ensemble is verified by the Trained Observer. The healthcare worker should be comfortable and able to extend the arms, bend at the waist, and go through a range of motions to ensure there is sufficient range of movement while all areas of the body remain covered. A mirror in the room can be useful for the healthcare worker while donning PPE.
