    Hello everyone,
    I’ve been lurking for a LONG time and decided to get in the pool. :)

    My question has to do with the idea of using Nitrile Gloves obtained from Harbor Freight. On the packaging, it indicates that the gloves are for Industrial and not Medical use.

    I’m not going to be performing surgery with these gloves. I just wanted them as a barrier in case of having to treat someone w/a latex allergy in a first responder-type of scenario.

    I’m not an EMT, nor do I pretend to be one, but if I can save money on a product purchased for another purpose, then I’m all over it.

    So, my question is “Would these Nitrile Gloves be sufficient to give first aid?”

    Thanks everyone,
    This is a great forum.
