You are a new graduate of a medical assisting program and have just been hired by an internal medicine practice with seven practitioners. This is a very busy office and you are excited to be working in the clinical area. Since you are new to the practice, you will shadow with Mary Benton, RMA. This morning is particularly busy and you have seen several patients with suspected influenza. After the morning patient session, Mary approaches you and says that you could save time by not washing your hands so much. She tells you that, if you are wearing gloves, you don’t have to wash your hands after you take them off. How do you respond to Mary, and what action should you take?
