I always try my best to maintain IPAC precautions for all my patient interactions. There have been instances where I may not wear full PPE as I am just running into do one thing such as deliver water. However, certain infections I would be more strict with those occurrences. For example, I feel safer doing that with someone on precaution for c.diff over someone on precautions for an airborne infection. Although there are breaches in PPE amongst nurses it is not because we do not know or understand the implications or even that we are lazy. I think it has more to do with time constraint. Donning a full set of PPE takes time and sometimes we are so busy that shortcuts are made. However I found that the best way to limit those shortcuts and ensure we are donning PPE appropriately is to try to cluster all my care when I have patients on precautions. Such as in the morning I do all my vitals, morning meds, set up for meals and peri care in one interaction. I try to bring in everything I need into the patient’s room and get them settled and comfortable. However, this is not always possible.
