IF YOU ARE A WORKING ANYWHERE NEAR THE FLOOD WATERS, CLEANING, ETC.
1. MAKE SURE YOUR TETANUS SHOT IS UP TO DATE!
2. USE NIOSH Approved N95 FACE MASKS WITH EXHALATION VALVES. They are made by 3M and you should be able to get them at Lowe's, Menard's, Home Depot, ACE and other quality building/contractor supply stores.
3. WEAR long sleeve shirts (your local volunteer coordinator will advise you when you can wear short sleeves)
4. It will get hotter over the next two months...STAY HYDRATED...drink lots of water...pop doesn't do it!!! TAKE A BREAK WHEN YOU NEED IT...AND WORK SAFE...don't add to the work load by having someone taking you to the ER!
5. WEAR LONG PANTS, and HARD TOE BOOTS if you can, especially if you are doing demolition...
6. HEAD GEAR, even a HARD HAT is essential as well...
