    I'm not a nurse but I have one because of our poor air quality due to the smoke from our wildfires. How do you know if it's been fitted properly for you? This is my first time owning one

      As a nurse we have to be fit by a technician

    so if your glasses fog up, your leaking?

    • @NurseMinder
      @NurseMinder  3 роки тому

      Typically with an N95 mask I do not experience fogging glasses - unless I am also wearing goggles - then the heat that rises from breathing is trapped and it will cause fogging

    When wearing an N95 should I be experiencing foggy glasses?

    • @NurseMinder

      No. If you have foggy glasses with an N95 you have a leak!!! N95 masks require fit testing

      That is a common step to many procedures and is noted in the video. The steps outlined pertain to the mask donning and doffing
