Description
Job hazards for law enforcement professionals are increasing dramatically in the United States, which can impact the safety and health of those we trust to protect our communities. Unknown powdered substances should be treated with extreme caution as exposure to a small amount of certain substances, like fentanyl, can lead to significant health-related complications, respiratory depression, or death.
The Sentry Shield SP is a Standard Protection kit that provides moderate protection where suspected small amounts of hazardous substances may be present. Each kit contains a barrier protective garment and 12″ extended cuff gloves. The respirator mask and safety glasses give you added protection if an unknown powder becomes airborne.
The Sentry Shield line of personal protective kits protects law enforcement officers and first responders from unknown powder substances that could be hazardous like fentanyl, carfentanil, or other powerful opioid-based substances. These personal protection kits range in coverage: Quick Protection (QP), Standard Protection (SP), and Extra Protection (EP) 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.
