Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If a phlebotomist observes a rash on their hands when gloves are removed, they should not apply hand lotion more frequently as the rash may be an allergic reaction to the gloves or a skin infection. They should report the rash to their supervisor and seek medical treatment. Applying lotion could worsen the rash or spread the infection.
