Guidance on Personal Protective Equipment
Sit in the designated clean chair to take off your boot covers only.
Once you sit down, be careful not to touch one leg with the other. Then grasp the outside of the boot cover and pull down toward your ankle. Then, lift the boot cover over your heel, pull it off your foot and dispose of it correctly. The exact way to remove the boot covers will vary based on the manufacturer’s instructions.
