Winter is here and it's time to take a little extra care to stay safe and healthy!There is no cure for the common cold, however there are proven ways to increase our chances of warding off the sniffles.
1. Nourish your body by eating well-balanced healthy meals.
2. Clean and disinfect your work area.
3. Getting plenty of rest and drinking lots of fluids are two important ways of keeping
colds away.
4. Dress in layers, so that you can remove clothes if you're too warm or put on layers if you're cold. Sweaters and Sweatshirts are good layers. .
5. Wear a warm winter coat everyday; hats, gloves and boots are important too!
6. WASHING YOUR HANDS is the most important way to prevent spreading germs.
If the doctor prescribes an antibiotic you must take the antibiotic for 24 hours before returning back to work. You should be fever free for 24 hours also before returning to work.
Remember to take care of yourself! Prevention is the best way to avoid catching colds!
