Downloads: 0

This PPE Competency Audit template helps healthcare teams evaluate staff competency in using personal protective equipment. Assess correct order of donning and doffing, confirm all required PPE is worn and removed, and record whether on‑the‑spot education was needed. Optionally review hand hygiene technique when observed. Capture role details for the person observed, including physician, nursing, learners, environmental services, or allied health, to target training and compliance actions. Use this checklist to reinforce infection control practices, reduce exposure risks, and standardize competency assessments across healthcare settings.
