We Only Use Non Latex Gloves in Our Hospital Facility
Our hospital has to be extremely careful about the use of latex. It is true that some patients have a terrible allergic reaction if they come in contact with this material in bandages or tubing or even from our gloves. As a result, the new policy is to buy only non latex gloves throughout the entire facility. This means that the cooks wear non latex, the cleaning people wear non latex, and the doctors and nurses also wear non-latex. It has been some time now since we have had problems with someone having a negative reaction. I think that our precautionary measures are paying off.
