When it comes to the safety of your patients and medical staff, the best approach is to establish a benchmark of where your facility is now and where you'd like it to be. The following questions can be a good first step in guiding your thinking.
• Does your facility use powdered gloves?
• Have you identified the specific barrier protection needs of your OR staff?
• Do some of your health care workers double glove during surgery?
• Do you know the number of percutaneous exposures of staff?
