Having a hard time remembering precautions

by ANH_RN

Who else has a difficult time remembering the different precautions?

I know in standard precautions you wash your hands, use gloves when in contact with drainage/open skin, etc. But I'm having a difficult time remembering what specifically you wear for the airborn and droplet precautions. -- when do you wear a gown and when do you wear goggles. I know that I can look this all up but my question is does anyone have any special ways of remembering it all?

Taking NCLEX tomorrow. SIGH.
