MEDICAL MASKS
Until now, Face Masks were only a commonplace in the medical field. Since the coronavirus outbreak, wearing a face mask is a new normal when entering public spaces to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Masks are made from a variety of materials and layers to filter airborne contaminants. Masks must be worn loosely over the nose and mouth so that breathing isn't restricted causing the wearer to adjust and put themselves at risk by touching the face. If worn and handled properly, it will slow the spread of sickness, especially when worn by individuals with the virus who may not know it.
MEDICAL GLOVES
Nitrile gloves are commonly used as exam gloves, but due to their strength, lend themselves to multiple uses. Nitrile gloves are made of a synthetic rubber that resembles latex, yet will have a better resistance to punctures. Nitrile comes in powdered form, sterile, non-sterile and offered at different lengths from wrist to the forearm. They are designed for multiple uses that include basic exam room checks, to the hazardous materials handling, like working with chemotherapy chemicals. Vitality Medical offers dozens of nitrile glove choices and proudly hosts popular brands with high quality construction.
MEDICAL caps
As a medical professional or a person with common sense, you know that medical caps are used to protect both the medical professional and the patient. The medical cap is in place to prevent hazardous bodily fluids from splashing onto the doctor or nurse’s hair and head. They are also used to prevent hair from affecting the vision of the medical professionals. On the other hand of the spectrum, loose hair or even other contaminants like hair products or dandruff is dangerous to the patient. He or she is already weakened from the circumstances that lead them into the operating room as well as from the procedure. It’s crucial to ensure that the patient is protected from any possible contamination.
