	When identifying a bacterium, the first step is Gram stain, which can tell us whether it has a Gram-positive or Gram-negative cell wall, and can give us information about the size and shape (bacilli or cocci, usually). Everyone needs to know how to interpret a Gram-stain report, since it is still one of the first pieces of information we get about a bacterial infection.
