If you are in a situation where a much loved member of your family or elderly relative can no longer look after themselves then it can be tough. There are often a range of issues that can lead to someone needing to be placed into care or that make them eligible to receive home care. Often people's problems are a result of old age in the sense that their motor skills aren't what they used to be and they struggle with every day tasks like getting to the toilet. The other problems can be that the body is fine but the brain is starting to fail, this can be down to diseases such as alzheimer's and dementia, which often lead to confusion and uncontrollable outbursts. If you want to give someone the nursing care they need then you either have the option of trying to raise funds for it by selling any assets you may have or by applying for help.

Caring for the elderly whether in a care home or at your home requires a large amount of different sorts of medical supplies. These often need to be bought in bulk form, from a wholesale health supplier. They will be able to supply you with most of the equipment that you need such as wholesale latex gloves, incontinence pads and disposable plastic aprons. These are the supplies that you will be using frequently to clean up and reduce mess and to help stop the spread of diseases.


There are different types of glove available for various tasks and they come in a wide range of materials as people can often have allergies to materials like latex. You also find that some gloves contain powder where as others do not and are called powder free gloves. Powder is often put into gloves to make them easier to put on if the task you are performing means that your hands are damp. There have been issues in the medical industry with regards to powdered gloves as the powder can sometimes cause problems when performing tasks like surgery. This has meant that more medical institutions have now switched to powder free gloves in most cases, as they are a lot safer to use when you are working with wounds.
