Anyone can acquire an infection from their surroundings. You must continue to treat your symptoms, monitor your condition, and take steps to prevent spreading the infection to others. And homemaking services can be a great relief at this point.
As a non-medical home care provider, we understand the danger of cross-contamination. You should follow the steps below to contain and prevent the spreading of the disease:
- Drink plenty of fluids to stay very well-hydrated. Drink non-carbonated fluids such as soda and sparkling water. Avoid alcohol in the meantime.
- Wear a facemask if you have one, particularly when you are around other people. If you contracted a virus, isolate yourself from other people and animals in your home. As much as possible, stay in a specific room and away from other people in your home. Use a separate bathroom, if available.
- Avoid sharing personal household items, such as dishes, drinking glasses, cups, eating utensils towels, or bedding with other people or pets. Wash them thoroughly after use.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe. Use disinfectant sprays with caution.
- Before seeking in-home care in Missouri, call your providers and tell them that you have an infection to help them prepare.
If your doctor or local health department advises you to remain on home isolation precautions, please contact them for advice on when it is appropriate to resume normal daily activities. Contact your home care agency in Kansas City, Missouri for possible added assistance.
