We use disposable non-latex gloves for cleaning up children. Although it is discouraged - technically there should be another adult present if a child is exposing their genitals. There should also be no touching between adult and child (which the second adult is there to ensure). However this is impractical due to staffing levels - you cannot take a teacher out of a class of 30 for example, in order to clean up a child. Nor can you employ a member of staff with nothing else to do but wait for these situtaions!
Neither can you pass a pack of wet-wipes through the toilet door to a 4/5 year old (or a sick 6/7 year old or older) and expect them to come out squeaky clean.
Plunging is a job requiring a more robust glove, however.
I could have done it sans gloves I guess and in the end I think I probably did get fecal matter on my right hand too. But I was too squeamish not to try for rudimentary protection.
And no, the glove I used is not the sort of glove you want to turn inside out. It's explored more dubious areas than Sir David Attenborough.
