1. All PPE would be discarded in the hazardous waste container whenever leaving the client's room, and new PPE would be donned when returning to the room. 2. The nurse could wear the same PPE if only leaving the room briefly and discard in the hazardous waste container when the client is transferred to the floor. 3. The nurse removes the PPE and places it just inside the room to put back on when reentering the client's room, then discards into the hazardous waste container when the client is transferred. 4. If the PPE is soiled, the nurse discards it when leaving the room, but if it is not visibly contaminated, the nurse can reapply the same PPE when reentering the client's room.
