Feedback:
Although refuse and linen from all clients are considered contaminated, in some types of isolation these items are double-bagged out of the room. Two nurses must carry out the double-bagging procedure. The nurse inside the room is considered contaminated and the nurse outside the room is considered clean. Both nurses wear gloves and, if specified, gowns, and/or masks. The contaminated nurse places dirty items into a bag and closes the top. This entire bag, inside and out, is considered contaminated. The clean nurse, outside the room, has a second bag that is considered clean.
