How do you remove your gloves so you don't get anything on yourself?

Answer 1

You can switch the hands here to suit your needs. Start by washing your hands with the gloves still on. Then, with the left hand, pinch the outside of the right hand glove, about where you would feel your pulse. The idea is not to touch your skin with any part of the left glove that may have contacted any contaminants. After you pinch your right glove, carefully pull it completely off, making sure the inside of the glove peels over the outside; don't let any part of the outside of the right glove touch your skin. keep pinching the glove. Now take your right middle and index fingers and slip them carefully into the left glove, where the rim of the glove comes up to you left wrist/arm. Pinch the inside of the left glove about the same way you pinched the right glove, and pull it down, careful not to get any of the outer glove surface onto your skin. Pull it all the way down OVER the right glove, which you are still pinching. If you do this right, you will now have all of the potentially contaminated surfaces of the gloves within the inside-out left glove. Dispose of it properly and wash hands thoroughly.
