   Risk Management Programs

Ansell's Glove Management Program is based on the detailed analysis of medical glove utilization and expenditures by our highly trained team of Clinical Consultants. The statistics generated will lead to recommendations designed to:

  • optimize product selection
  • achieve product standardization by eliminating misuse & waste
  • optimize patient & worker safety
  • consolidate inventory by eliminating product duplication
  • comply with regulatory standards

    Ansell's Glove Management Program has also helped facilities reduce overall costs.

  • STEP #l - GLOVE UTILZATION ANALYSIS
    Your Ansell Clinical Consultant completes a detailed survey of each department's usage patterns and requirements, which becomes the basis for any recommended changes. The survey may be followed by confidential interviews.

    STEP #2 - CONFIDENTIAL PERSONNEL SURVEY
    Your Ansell Clinical Consultant interviews personnel with special gloving needs, latex and chemical allergies, high risk of exposure to blood and body fluid pathogens or chemical agents. Unique gloving needs are incorporated into the program recommendations.

    STEP #3 - RISK MANAGEMENT
    Your Ansell Clinical Consultant meets with personnel responsible for employee's health and safety and gathers information to identify unique needs regarding skin sensitization/irritation. From this survey, we can recommend alternatives for latex/chemical sensitive workers, and clarify costs related to Workers Compensation, retraining and reassignment issues.

    STEP #4 - MATERIALS MANAGEMENT LIASON
    We review with the Materials Management Department their specific needs with regard to ordering, purchasing group and managed care affiliations, storage capabilities and other issues.

    STEP #5 - FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
    When the first four steps have been completed, we develop a confidential report that permits you to look more closely at glove selection and management as a whole, and identify steps that you can take to reduce overall glove costs.

    To take advantage of Ansell's Glove Management and Utilization Program, just contact your Ansell Representative or the Ansell Customer Service Department at 1-800-363-8340.

    *Ansell's management fees will be refunded if the 10% cost reduction is not obtained.
