Kelowna First Aid 250.878.6690 – Medical Gloves Safety Demo Video – Next First Aid Class Nov 15th or Nov 29th

Medical gloves are medical safety accessories that ensure sanitary hospital conditions by limiting patients’ exposure to infectious matter. They also serve to protect health professionals from disease through contact with bodily fluids.

Medical gloves are traditionally made of latex and powdered with cornstarch to lubricate the gloves, making them easier to don.[1] Cornstarch replaced Lycopodium powder and/or talc but since cornstarch can also impede healing if it gets into tissues (as during surgery), non-powdered gloves are being used more often during surgery and other sensitive procedures. Special manufacturing processes are used to compensate for the lack of powder.

There are two main types of gloves: exam, and surgical. Surgical gloves have more precise sizing (numbered sizing, generally from size 5.5 to size 9), and are made to higher specifications.

Due to the increasing rate of latex allergy among health professionals as well as in the general population, there has been an increasing move to gloves made of non-latex materials such as vinyl or nitrile rubber; Chemical processes may also be employed to reduce the amount of antigenic protein in Hevea latex, resulting in alternative Hevea-based materials such Vytex Natural Rubber Latex. However, these gloves have not yet replaced latex gloves in surgical procedures, as gloves made of alternate materials generally do not fully match the fine control or greater sensitivity to touch available with latex surgical gloves. High-grade non-latex gloves such as nitrile gloves also cost twice as much, or more than the price of their latex counterparts, a fact that has often prevented switching to these alternate materials in cost-sensitive environments, such as many hospitals.[3]

Powder-free medical gloves are also used in medical cleanroom environments, where the need for cleanliness is often similar to that in a sensitive medical environment.[citation needed] Similar but specially tested gloves are used in electronics cleanrooms.

Okanagan First Aid – Ladder Safety Worksafe BC Video

A ladder is a vertical or inclined set of rungs or steps. There are two types: rigid ladders that can be leaned against a vertical surface such as a wall, and rope ladders that are hung from the top. The vertical members of a rigid ladder are called stringers (US) or stiles (UK). Rigid ladders are usually portable, but some types are permanently fixed to buildings.

Kelowna First Aid Course – WHMIS Work Safe BC Information

Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System

The Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS, known as SIMDUT, Système d’information sur les matières dangereuses utilisées au travail in the other national language) is Canadas national hazard communication standard. The key elements of the system, which came into effect on Oct 31.1988 are cautionary labelling of containers of WHMIS controlled products, the provision of material safety data sheet (MSDSs) and worker education and training programs.

WHMIS is an example of synchronization and cooperation amongst Canada’s federal, provincial and territorial governments. The coordinated approach avoided duplication, inefficiency through loss of scale and the interprovincial trade barriers that would have been created had each province and territory established its own hazard communication system.

Kelowna First Aid Training – Zoll AED Plus Automated External defibrillator – CPR

When a cardiac arrest occurs, the fact is that only half of the victims will need a shock. The other half requires CPR resuscitation.

You deserve an automated external defibrillator (AED) that helps you all the time. And, only one AED can actually see when you are doing CPR resuscitation and help you do it well. You need more than just commands, without assistance. That’s not smart, and it’s certainly not help.

ZOLL’s AED Plus® features Real CPR Help®, a tool that is able to actually see what you are doing and provide feedback to help you do it well. Audio and visual prompts help you rescue with confidence and clarity unmatched by any other automated external defibrillator (AED).

  • Not pushing hard enough? It will tell you when to push harder.
  • Pushing hard enough? It will say, “Good compressions.”
  • Not pushing fast enough? A metronome will lead you to the right rate.
  • It will even show you the depth of each compression. In real time.
  • Not yet started? The AED Plus will tell you again to get started.
  • Compressions stopped? It will tell you to continue.

ZOLL believes an AED should not just deliver a shock. It should also help the rescuer provide high-quality cardiopulminary resuscitation cpr. That’s why you need ZOLL’sAED Plus with Real CPR Help.

The AED Plus offers:

Real CPR Help for rate and depth of compressions.
