Ansell supports charitable surgeries in the Republic of Congo with a donation of GAMMEX? surgical gloves to AU not-for-profit organization AusHEAL

AusHEAL is a not-for-profit organization run by Australian volunteers with specialist medical knowledge and expertise. Ansell's Bev Peiker, ANZ Area Sales Manager - Northern Hospitals, has been involved with AusHEAL and was contacted by Queensland-based General Surgeon Dr. Neil Wetzig as he was preparing to lead a team of Australian physicians on his third visit to Congo.

"Previously, I helped AusHEAL by providing Bellovac drains, however this time Neil was looking for a donation so Ansell gloves. GAMMEX are his preferred gloves, having worn them for more than 20 years," says Bev. "Of course I was only too happy to help, and it was a wonderful opportunity for Ansell to support such important and inspiring work."

Using GAMMEX surgical gloves while working in the challenging conditions of the DR Congo provides AusHEAL teams with confidence and peace of mind. "Ansell gloves provide the quality that we expect, and that we want when operating in this environment," says Dr. Wetzig. "They give good protection and they are good quality – I know that they are not going to tear."
