Hand washing is necessary when hands are visibly contaminated, but also before and after using gloves to prevent the spread of infection. Washing hands before applying gloves is also important to prevent transferring bacteria from your hands to the gloves, which can then spread to patients. Washing hands after removing gloves is important to prevent contamination of your hands and exposure to any bacteria on the gloves.
