Taking care of a sick family member while ensuring everyone’s safety can be quite challenging, especially when it comes to isolating them from the rest of the household. Creating a dedicated space for the sick family member is crucial; it allows them to have their own personal area complete with the necessary household items. It is essential to maintain clear communication and regularly check in to ensure the well-being of your team members while also prioritizing the safety of the rest of your squad. Remember, direct contact with a virus is a clear path to illness. The main goal of quarantine is to effectively prevent the spread of highly contagious diseases that are as easily transmitted as the common cold.
Mission: Keep Your Home Virus-Free
In the mission to keep your family healthy, preparation is key. Ensure you have stockpiled essential supplies for:
- food
- sanitation
- hygiene
For utmost security in protecting your home from external dangers, it is crucial to utilize the trusted combination of duct tape and plastic sheeting to create a highly effective seal for both your doors and windows. Pre-cutting these sheets to fit your entrances can save crucial time when stress levels are high.
Create a designated outdoor area specifically for the disposal of personal waste bags. Storing these inside your home base could compromise your safety by increasing the risk of disease spread.
Maintaining communication lines is vital. Use radio communication to stay informed about the situation outside and to know when it’s safe to venture out.
Mission: Contain Illness From Spreading
If a family member falls ill, it’s important to isolate them in a specific area of your home or in a nearby location. This could be a motor home, cabin, or detached garage. These isolation zones should be sealed with duct tape and plastic sheeting.
Mark the entrance to the isolation zone with a sign indicating it’s a quarantined area. This serves as a warning for people to enter only with appropriate protective gear or accidentally entering at all. Set up a sanitation station outside the entrance equipped with soap, water, latex gloves, masks, and other necessary protective gear.
Before entering the isolation zone, individuals must suit up in protective gear. Upon exiting, they should dispose of any disposable items, and thorough handwashing is a must.
Remember, in the face of a pandemic, your mission is to keep your family safe and healthy. Preparation, isolation, and sanitation are your key strategies. Stay vigilant, stay prepared, and stay strong.
