Nursing a Novel Coronavirus Patient

Dear OSIPP students,

In Japan, the spread of the new coronavirus has entered the period of spread, and infected people are appearing everywhere.

In the case of the novel coronavirus, it is expected that 80% of patients will experience minor illness and be nursed at home. Therefore, we have collected and organized information regarding nursing at home from the advice given by experts at a recent government meeting.

We have made the materials in 10 languages:

• Japanese,
• English,
• Chinese,
• Korean,
• Spanish,
• Portuguese,
• Indonesian,
• Filipino,
• Vietnamese, and
• Hindi.

Please share and use freely.

Finally, please be careful about your own health. Remember to wear masks in crowds, wash your hands frequently, and practice respiratory hygiene.

Thank you.
