Handwashing and Gloves: Making the Right Choice, Part III
| Division: | International | | Category: | Senior | | Region: | Cariboo Mainline | | City: | Kamloops, BC | | School: | St Ann's Academy | | Abstract: | The purpose of this research project was to determine if there was a relationship between washing hands prior to the application of the sterile glove, bacterial growth on the hands, and length of time that sterile gloves were worn.
