Safety Message
March 8, 2020
Dear PNANH Colleagues:
Out of abundance of caution for the spread of the COVID-19 Coronavirus, we are cancelling our upcoming activities in the month of April. We will keep you posted for the other activities lined up for the upcoming months depending on CDC’s recommendations.
We are closely monitoring developments from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The CDC’s website provides up-to-date information for preventing the spread of this respiratory virus, including the basics:
* Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.
* Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
* Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
* Stay home when you are sick.
* Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
* Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
Thank you for your diligence to the safety of each other and to your patients.
Sincerely,
Dr. Ira L. Martin, DNP, RN, CPHQ, LSSGB
PNANH President 2018-202
