2.02 Chain of Infection Activity
Teacher Resource
1. The teacher will distribute the 2.02 Chain of Infection Activity Handout, or six strips of paper as
illustrated in the handout.
2. Instruct the students to listen and follow directions as information is given about the links in the
chain of infection from the PowerPoint Presentation.
3. Elaborate on the information one link at the time, beginning with “causative agent”.
4. Lead the students to write keys point about causative agent on the appropriate strip of paper.
5. Students will form a loop with the first strip (causative agent) and staple it to form a circle.
6. Teacher provides information about the second link (reservoir), students write key points on
the link labeled “reservoir”.
7. Students add the second link (reservoir), to the first link (causative agent), to begin forming a
paper chain.
8. Repeat until all links are addressed.
9. Links should be addressed in this order: causative agent, reservoir, portal of exit, mode of
transmission, portal on entry, and susceptible host.
10. After teacher has provided information about each link and students have completed the
chain, ends linked together, review the total chain of infection.
11. Teacher will explain that to prevent the spread of infection, at least one link in the chain needs
to be broken.
12. Instruct students to tear any one link in their paper chain of infection. All infection control
strategies are directly related to breaking at least one link in the chain of infection.
Annotation:
Use the paper chain template or use paper of your choice for the links. Teacher may use a
different color for each link. Color coded links will make it easier to draw the student’s attention to
a particular link.

Name _______________
Handout
KEY
Date ________________
Directions: Use notes and textbook answer the following questions regarding standard
precautions.
1. “Who” developed SP? CDC
2. “When” does SP apply? At all times to prevent contact with blood or other
potentially infectious materials.
3. “What” situations necessitate the need for SP? Any situation where health care
provider may contact: Blood or any fluid that may contain blood; Body fluids,
secretions, or excretions – mucus, sputum, saliva, vomit, semen, or vaginal
secretions, mucous membranes, non-intact skin, or tissue/cell specimens.
4. “What” supplies are needed for SP? Gloves, gowns, and masks/eye protections
5. “Where” should SP supplies be located before and after use? Before use, SP supplies
should be stored in a clean area. After use, care must be taken to avoid
contamination of clean supplies. Items should be placed in a “dirty” area.
6. “What” should be done to prevent needle sticks? When possible, safe needles or
needleless devices should be used. Disposable needles must never be bent or
broken after use. Never re-cap needles. Place used needles in the sharps
container.
7. “When” should hands be washed? Before and after contact with any patient; after
contamination with any blood, body fluid, secretion, or excretion; and immediately
before donning and immediately after removing gloves.
8. “When” are gloves worn? Whenever contact with blood, body fluids, secretions,
excretions, mucous membranes, tissue specimens, or non-intact skin is possible;
when handling or cleaning contaminated surfaces or items; and when performing
any invasive procedure.
9. “When” should mask and eye protection be worn? During procedures that may
produce splashes or sprays of blood, body fluids, secretions, or excretions.
10. “When” should gowns be worn? During any procedures that are likely to cause
splashing or spraying of blood, body fluids, secretions, or excretions that may
contaminate clothing or uniform.
11. “What” is the proper way to handle patient care equipment? Patient care equipment
should be left in the room and used only for this patient. If this is not possible, all
equipment must be cleaned and disinfected before using on another patient.
12. “What” is the proper way to handle linen? Soiled linen should be placed in laundry
bags to prevent contamination. Linen soiled with blood, body fluids, or excretions
is placed in a special bag for contaminated linen and is usually soaked in a
disinfectant prior to being laundered.
13. “What” resuscitation devices should be used? Mouthpieces should be used to avoid
the need for mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
14. “Where” the patient should be placed? The patient must be placed in a private room.
15. “What” are the results of failing to abide by SP? Chain of infection continues; failure to
protect yourself, the patient, and other health care workers.
16. “What” is my employer’s responsibility? The agency must have a policy stating
actions that must be taken immediately when exposure to infectious materials or
injury occurs, reporting any incident, documenting any exposure incident,
recording the care given, noting follow-up to the exposure incident, and identifying
ways to prevent similar incidents.
17. “What” is my responsibility in SP? To follow all rules and regulations; to report any
exposure immediately to supervisor; to complete necessary incident report.
18. “What” must be removed before putting on gloves? Rings – to avoid puncturing the
gloves.

2.02 Prototype Assessment Items
Note: These items illustrate the types of items used in the item bank for this objective. All
items have been written to match the cognitive process of the understand verb in the
objective. Questions require students to interpret, summarize or explain infection control
procedures. These exact questions will not be used on the secured test, but questions in
similar formats will be used.
These assessment items may be used as prototypes by teachers and students to generate
similar items to comprise formative assessments for you classroom. This strategy is
especially helpful during the field test year when classroom item banks are not available.
Results of formative assessment should be used to diagnose levels of mastery, determine if
re-teaching is needed, and guide further instruction.
