Opioid use is increasing dramatically,
which can have deadly effects on law enforcement and first responders
that are exposed to them. According to the United States Drug
Enforcement Administration, Any
substance suspected to contain fentanyl should be treated with extreme
caution as exposure to a small amount can lead to significant
health-related complications, respiratory depression, or death.
The Sentry Shield - EP is an Extra Protection kit
that provides increased moderate protection where suspected opioid
materials may be present. The full coverall kit with goggles P100
respirator and two pair of nitrile gloves provides the greatest
protection of all the Sentry Shield kits. For higher threat levels
additional respiratory protection may be required.
The
Sentry Shield line of personal protective kits protects law enforcement
officers and first responders from white powdery substances that could
contain fentanyl, carfentanil, or other powerful opioid-based
substances. These personal protection kits range in coverage: Quick Protection, Standard Protection, and Extra Protection and are based on the severity of exposure levels responders may encounter.
In
all situations, employers must identify hazards to which their workers
might be exposed and provide appropriate PPE to protect them.
For a minimal exposure response where fentanyl may be present, but no opioid materials are visible.
