Chemo vs regular gloves

In light of the USP 800 deadline, I have a few questions about gloves.

1) Is your institution keeping both chemocertified and regular gloves?
2) Is your institution planning to use chemocertified gloves for ALL medications?
3) If yes to #2, how will you differentiate disposal of non hazardous drug-contaminated gloves vs. HD contaminated gloves?

Thank you,
Daniel
