How to enter clean room
Preparation
Prior to entering the change area, make the following preparations to ensure you are introducing as few particles as possible into the classified area:
- Wipe feet before entering
- Remove unnecessary street clothes
- Remove and store any personal items in storage provided
- Don mop cap/hairnet. Ensure all hair is tucked in
- Wash hands (using a skin disinfectant if appropriate), dry (using a non-linting towel or hand dryer) and apply suitable hand lotion
- Walk over the sticky mat ensuring both feet make contact and enter the clean room change area
Change Area
When you are inside the change area, move slowly and deliberately to generate as few particles as possible. You can now begin to gown:
- Pick out correct clean room clothing – coverall, head cover, overshoes, gloves, masks, goggles
- Inspect all garments for tears or rips – dispose of any that aren’t suitable and replace before continuing
- Put on facemask and/or hood, touching the inside of the hood only. Ensure all hair is tucked into the hood before adjusting
- Don your chosen garment, e.g. hooded Tyvek coverall
- Open zip
- Hold sleeve ends to shoulders and gather the material making the coverall as short as possible
- If a bench is available, sit down before gowning
- Place each foot in gathered coverall and pull up over legs
- Fasten any leg adjustments around the ankle (should be a snug fit)
- Stand up carefully, still holding the top half of coverall
- Place each arm in sleeves and pull up – outside of coverall should not touch the back of street clothes
- Tuck in head cover (if worn) and zip up coverall
- Fasten any neck and sleeve adjustments, again ensuring a snug fit
