It is an ongoing question in the skilled facility I work in of where to carry gloves. Is it appropriate to carry a supply of gloves in the pocket of your uniform in order to have them handy when you need a quick change of gloves at bed side? It is my opinion that the inside of our pocket would be considered a "dirty" environment and if you want to carry gloves in your pocket, they should be inside of a bag of some sort to keep them clean. This question comes up repeatedly especially during doing pericare, when frequent quick glove changes are required.
