Nursing Home Infection Preventionist Training Posttest Exam Questions and Answers with Rationales 2023 WB4081 - Posttest - Nursing Home Infection Preventionist Training Course (Web - based) - Incorrect Answer - Correct Answer 1. A nurse assistant is about to perform perineal care on an incontinent resident who wears briefs. His supplies have already been gathered and placed on the clean bedside table. He enters the room, dons non -sterile gloves, removes and discards the resident's soiled brief and cleans the resident's perineum. He removes his soiled gloves and dons a new pair of non -sterile gloves. He applies a clean brief. He discards his gloves and exists the room. How many times should he have performed hand hygiene in this scenario? Please select the best answer. A) 1 B) 2 C) 3 D) Hand hygiene was not required because gloves were worn. Rationale: The nurse assistant should have performed hand hygiene 3 times in this scenario. First, he should have performed hand hygiene before donning the non -sterile gloves to address the indication before touching a resident. Second, he should have performed hand hygiene after removing his first pair of gloves, before donning the second pair of gloves. This one act would address several indications: After a blood or body fluid exposure; after glove removal; and moving from a dirty task to a clean task. Third, performing hand hygiene after removing the second pair of gloves addresses the indications after glove removal and after touching the resident. (Module 7) 2.
