Is it that you ALWAYS GATHER supplies before washing hands, and that you do everything with the equipment before starting with the patient? I just can never get these steps straight

Think about what you are doing and the order to do it in.
Personally I would wash my hands, gather the equipment I need, wash my hands again, prepare the equipment and make sure everything is at hand and in the order you need it, then once you have put on gloves especially sterile gloves you are good to go and no need to run around because you have forgotten something
