Do you wear goggles when....

Featured Replies

Well, no, but it sounds like a good idea! I think I went home covered in urine and blood clots one day. None in my eyes though! Maybe a gown is a good idea?

i don't wear goggles at all. ever. i wear my "birth control glasses." (my older glasses with bigger lenses that i am assured render me asexual). i wear a fluid shield mask when messing with anything arterial other than a perfectly intact art line.

I don't, and I bring in a chux and aim it so if there's leakage it will hopefully land there.

I am VERY cautious and wear whatever PPE is necessary in any situation. Yesterday I was going to suction a trach, the family told me the other nurses don't wear a mask and sheild when they suction my brother. WELL, THIS nurse DOES and WILL always.

Used to be an RT before RN, and after getting sputum in the eye from a coughing trach patient, I started wearing Gargoyle eyewear all the time. When I transitioned to nursing, I was used to wearing the Gargoyle's so I wear them all the time. I know they help because I find all sorts of spatter on them by the end of shift.
