Information from ANA about guidelines for employees who may have had potential COVID19 contact and their clothing. We are aware that some nurses are showering and changing clothes before going home  Similar to washing your hands, this should provide protection to families. ANA will be ramping up resources to address issues related to mental health and well-bring.  There is already a tremendous number of resources in HNHN that are very applicable to the pandemic. With regard to laundry, the CDC guidance is below: Ideally, wear disposable gloves and discard them after each use. When using reusable gloves, only use those gloves for cleaning and disinfecting surfaces infected with COVID-19-do not use them for any other household purpose. Wash your hands immediately after using the gloves. If you aren't using gloves when handling dirty laundry, be sure to thoroughly wash your hands afterwards. Try to not shake the dirty laundry. Shaking the laundry carries a possibility of dispersing the virus through the air. If possible, use the warmest water setting on your washer and ensure items are dried completely afterwards. Dirty laundry from an ill person can be washed with other people's items. If possible, consider placing a bag liner in your hamper that's disposable or can be laundered. Otherwise, ensure the hamper itself is washed and sanitized.
