Notes for going outdoors for medical treatment

1. If not undergoing regular antenatal examinations, pregnant women should choose the nearest medical institution with the fewest daily outpatient visits. Necessary and urgent medical examinations and medical procedures should be taken first, and appointments and preparations should be made in advance of the visit. The layout of the hospital departments and the procedures of the outpatient visit should be gotten familiar with; the visiting time should be reduced as much as possible.

Build a file of the antenatal examination at hospital, and pay attention in order to do a good job of protecting yourself during the whole procedure.

2. On the way to the hospital, as well as in the hospital, keep warm and avoid catching a cold. Pregnant women and accompanying family members should wear surgical masks or N95 medical masks at all times. Use hand sanitizer or disinfection wipes to maintain hands hygiene. When on the road or in the hospital, keep as much distance as possible (at least one meter) from one another.

3. Avoid taking public transportation when you go out for medical treatment. You can choose to take a taxi or drive a car owned by your family. If necessary, open the windows to ventilate the car.

4. After touching hospital door handles, curtains, doctors' uniforms and other hospital articles, use hand disinfectant as soon as possible. Do not touch your mouth, nose or eyes before you disinfect.

5. After returning home, outdoor masks should be handled properly. Change clothes, wash hands, clean face and other exposed parts. Clothes should be cleaned and disinfected as soon as possible and coats should be placed in a well-ventilated place.
