I haven't used a glove. I *always* use my Slidelock now, and I also like to put grip strips on my rulers and templates (including my June Tailor shape cut mat). The grips are the best thing I have found to keep a ruler or template from sliding. The Slidelock lifts my free hand out of range of the rotary cutter, and it also helps keep rulers and templates from sliding. I have trained myself now to *always* put the guard back on the rotary cutter when I walk away from the table, but I think there are newer rotary cutters that will automatically place the guard back after you finish cutting. These have helped me a lot to be safer with the rotary cutter.
Here is a link to the Slidelock (I use both sizes regularly):

And here is a link to the grip strips I like on Amazon (although they also have their own website):

I would also say it could be worthwhile for you to invest in an electric scissors and an Accuquilt Go Big! The electric scissors can only rough-cut fabric (not precise enough for cutting quilt pieces), but you could use it to rough-cut yardage into pieces suitable for running through the Accuquilt. The Go Big! is their electric version so you do not need any strength to run the pieces through the die cutter. In your situation, I think the investment would be a very good one.
My electric scissors are no longer made, but here is a link to something similar to mine:
