Recently, I received a call from a medical facility customer who runs an operating room notifying us that they needed new products because their PPE protocols had changed. Due to stricter guidelines, their workers were transitioning from wearing bouffants, face coverings, and gloves to add in the use of face shields and bodysuits.
It brought up some important questions. What do you do when your entire gowning process becomes more elaborate? How do you deal with an exponential increase in glove use or extra PPE?
In the continually changing world of research and medical operations, health and safety protocols can feel like moving targets. While most cleanroom operators understand that they must manage a dynamic environment, they also need the tools and equipment to meet those ever-changing protocols and demands.
Most recently, PPE is emerging as the latest challenge faced by cleanroom operators. In this rapidly changing environment, many industries are finding that they need to adjust their protocols to incorporate the use of more PPE. That may mean gloves and a mask, or it could mean leveling up to full bodysuits. From face coverings to modular workstations, cleanrooms must be outfitted to meet the latest requirements. You may find that you need modular workstations that can be easily rearranged to adapt to a changing work process. Or to install additional glove dispensers in order to meet the latest requirements. These are just some of the ways that cleanroom supplies can impact a project or process.Â
