ASSESSMENT
1. Assess the situation to determine the necessity for sterile gloves. Consider
the type of procedure to be performed and consult institutional policy on the
use of sterile gloves.
2. Check the patient’s medical record for information about a possible latex
allergy. Question the patient about any history of allergy, including latex
allergy or sensitivity, and signs and symptoms that have occurred. If the
patient has a latex allergy, anticipate the need for latex-free gloves.
PLANNING
3. Select correct size and type of glove.
4. Select a clean, dry work surface above waist level.
5. Complete all priority care tasks before beginning procedure. Rationale:
Sterile field should be prepared as close as possible to time of use.
6. Check that the sterile glove package is dry and unopened. Also note
expiration date, making sure that the date is still valid. Rationale: Moisture
contaminates a sterile package. Expiration date indicates the period that the
package remains sterile.
IMPLEMENTATION
Donning Sterile Gloves
7. Perform hand hygiene and put on PPE, if indicated
8. Peel open the outer pack from the corners and lay it on the surface.
9. Open the inner glove wrapper exposing the cuffed gloves with palms facing
up.
10. Pick up the first glove by the cuff, touching only the inside portion of the
cuff.
11. While holding the cuff in one hand, slip your other hand into the glove.
(Pointing the glove towards the floor will keep the fingers open).
12. Pick up the second glove by sliding the fingers of the gloved hand under the
cuff of the second glove.
13. Put the second glove on the ungloved hand by maintaining a steady pull on
the cuff. Adjust the glove fingers until the gloves fit comfortably.
Removing
14. Using the dominant hand with gloves, grasp the other glove near the cuff end
and remove by inverting it, keeping the contaminated area on the inside.

15. Slide fingers of hand without glove inside the remaining glove. Grasp glove
in the inside by turning inside out over hand and the other glove.
16. Discard glove in appropriate container and wash hands.
EVALUATION

18. Patient remains free of exposure to potential infection-causing
microorganisms.
