As a health care professional it is hugely important to have the correct equipment to safeguard both you and your clients. The use of disposable gloves, aprons and other essential infection control supplies help prevent the spread of dangerous contagions such as MRSA. It is your duty to ensure that the care you provide meets the medical standards as set by The Health and Social Care Act 2008 and to do so the best way is to make sure that you have high quality equipment at your disposal.
The proper use of gloves is paramount to any health care professional, regardless of whether you work within dentistry, elderly care or one of the many other medical professions. It can be tempting to buy cheap lower quality gloves for your work place simply because of the extensive use they get. This is one of the worst mistakes you can make because as with all low quality products the integrity of it is compromised. If you are using gloves and they split or tear you are putting both you and your client at risk, so to ensure the best infection control possible buy high quality medical grade latex gloves every time.
Another key item used to achieve a high standard of infection control is the apron, worn to protect clothing from contaminants so you do not spread them from room to room. At The Glove Club we offer a wide range of disposable aprons to best suit your needs, you can choose from boxed aprons or aprons on a roll depending on your personal preference, both of which are suitable for any discerning health care professional.
Depending on your specialisation you may be required by law to wear a face mask, and for those of you who are required to use a new mask per client you will know just how important a high quality mask can be in the fight against infection. A reliable elastic or string and an adjustable bridge are just a few of the features of the many different types of mask The Glove Club offer and with a range of competitive prices there is a mask for every budget.
When you are looking for quality products at budget friendly prices The Glove Club is the right choice for the astute health care professional, because when you’re on the front line in the fight against infection control quality matters.
