GUIDANCE FOR THE CORRECT USE OF PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)

When caring for patients with a suspected or proven COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2 infection, the level of protection you need depends on the environment you are working in. This website asks you questions about your working environment and then shows you a video about the correct use of the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) you must use when caring for COVID-19 patients. This website is a general resource for NHS health workers, providing simple, area based and accessible visual guidelines on the correct use of PPE for COVID-19.
