CNA Testing Questions for Florida

Published

I am going to be taking my CNA Test in Florida very soon. Waiting on date. Need clarification - I'm getting confused or maybe just blowing this whole thing out of proportion.

This glove issue is driving me nuts. Our instructor told us " you can't touch anything clean" when you have gloves on performing a skill. This is what I am confused on:

Bed Pan skill:

They don't tell you to put gloves on when placing the bed pan only when removing it. Should I not put the gloves on to place the bed pan ?

Mouthcare w/Dentures:

clean the dentures with the gloves on. Then you according to the skills list you leave the gloves on and clean the mouth ? The same gloves you used to clean the dentures ?

Partial Bath:

Leave the dirty gloves on that you just used to give a partial bath to put on the clean gown ? Otherwise you would be removing gloves, washing hands, put on clean gown, put on clean gloves to rinse and clean basin ?

Lastly, is it ok to leave on the soiled gloves to rinse out the basin then touch the faucet handles with the gloves or do you use the paper towel to turn on and turn off the water so the gloves don't contaminate the faucets ?

Sorry to ask all these questions but the skills list really don't clarify these and when I called Prometric, they could not help. I am very nervous about making a mistake with these gloves.

Thanks for your help
