Even if you are disposing of your fit, rinse it with clean cold tap water, straight after your hit. This will remove most of the blood, prevent if from blocking and help reduce the likelihood of dirty hits if you have to use the fit again.
Dispose of the rinsing water immediately, so no one else can use it and contaminate their equipment with your blood. Dispose of your fit in a disposal container or a puncture proof, childproof container and return the container to your NSP. Don't recap other people's fits.
Wipe down the area where you have mixed up your fix with soapy (detergent) water. Where there is a possibility of skin contact, the area should be wiped with household bleach. Don't re-use swabs, filters, or open water ampoules - they can become contaminated once opened.
When you have cleaned up, wash your hands and arms with warm soapy water. If this is impossible, use single wipes with new swabs instead. Store all your equipment in a clean, safe place. |
