This Micro Module addresses types and levels of personal protective equipment, or PPE. Ensuring that responders are wearing the correct PPE for a specific incident is crucial to protect lives and decrease contamination risk. In this presentation, we discuss the four levels of PPE, the types of clothing and gear for each level, and the types of conditions in which to use each type of PPE.
