Caption:
Lying atop a mobile gurney, a patient was being prepped, and coached just prior to the subsequent medical procedure that was about to take place in this hospital setting. The nurse was wearing her requisite blue colored hospital scrubs, and had draped a stethoscope around her neck. Modern protocols now call for the inclusion of additional personal protective equipment (PPE), implemented by healthcare personnel, including latex gloves, facemasks, and if appropriate, eye protection like a pair of goggles.
