Generally, there are three things you should look for to ensure your mask fits correctly:

1. The metal nose piece is at the top.
2. The pleats typically fall downwards and away from the nose (a “waterfall” pleat*).
3. The white, or smoothest side, is on the inside against the wearer’s skin; the color always faces out.
4. The wearer’s nose and mouth are covered by the face mask.

All individuals using medical face masks must be aware of the protective capabilities of the mask being worn. Healthcare workers should assess their risk of exposure to blood, body fluids, excretions and other potential hazards—and choose their mask accordingly.

A medical face mask is considered to be contaminated once it has been used, and should be discarded immediately. A mask should be removed by the edges or the ties rather than the front panel.

As part of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), medical face masks with integrated visors are recommended to ensure compliance with eye protection. PPE includes all equipment and apparel that prevents potentially infectious material from contaminating clothing, skin, eyes, mouth, nose, or other mucous membranes.
