Hiya :smile:

Do you have the textbook for this unit?

They're asking you to look at what procedures and policies an organisation may follow, so say the NHS. For example, when a nurse needs to remove a cannula from a patient. What will they need to wear to prevent the transmission of infection from patient to patient? Another example is in an operating theatre staff must wear scrubs, this is to prevent transmission of infections and keeping the area sterile.

It might be worth scanning through this: https://www.candi.nhs.uk/sites/default/files/Infection%20Prevention%20and%20Control_Policy%20and%20Procedures_CL05_Jan%202018.pdf
