how to put on gloves for a surgical technician san francisco

putting on gloves for a surgical technician san francisco could be the most hardest thing to do and is really tricky. trust me, when i first started, it would take me at least twenty minutes and my hand isnt even in the glove. it just felt wierd doing it. i can be hard because your hands is wet and also its a hard thing to do when your gown and you cant even touch the gloves with your bear hands. one of the things that helped me is to use and practice a disposable gloves, they come in all different sizes and colors and specialitys. we have different sizes from five in a half to nine. you want the gloves to fit tight like a glove but not to tight or else you will develop arthritis. if your wearing the wrong size glove, you can run in to some big trouble such as tearing the gloves and contaminating who knows what. handling the instruments wrong because the glove dosent fit right. also one big tip is to double glove. for many reason, one reason is because you dont know what the patient has, they can have mrsa, hiv, hepc and many more nasty things. so make sure you double glove or get the hell out of my room, jk.... and number two reason is just in case you tear a whole and your hang is all the way in the patients body because your retracting something. and it would be nasty to get that blood on your bare skin, that would be all bad. so make sure you double glove please. with more practice, this task can become really easy, trust me. i can do this like a pro... also practice infront of other people so you will get use to doing it, you want it to become second nature. when the surgeon is in the room and you havent gown, you better know how to gown and glove quick and fast. trust me. when i first started, the surgeon came into the room with the patient on the bed. the surgeon was ready to gown and glove (we as surgical technician san francisco gown and glove the surgeons) and i like a big dummy was having a hard time putting the gloves on. i had my instruments and stuff all ready but the surgeon wanted to go and get the procedure done and leave the room. so it took me a long time and the nurse was just screaming at me making the problem worse. so now these days, i can gown and glove myself like a pro =). but anyways, practice your gloving and become a pro. i gotta get going, good luck in becoming a surgical technician san francisco =)
