AIR QUALITY AND SAFETY AT HOME IN CHICO

August 25, 2021

Staying indoors is the best advice to follow on days where breathing wildfire smoke can create health risks.

Caregivers in California must keep an eye on air quality reports, smoke updates, and red flags warnings as air quality decreases and smoke spreads across the state from numerous wildfires. These red flag warnings and watches mean that conditions are favorable for wildfire development and toxic air. We can help make sure your loved one has a safety plan, provisions and is inside safe. 

If you or someone you care for needs a safety check or home visits, please ask one of our expert staff how we can help. Our 24/7 care and RN oversight can help you keep track of safety concerns at home.  

We know that healthcare can sometimes be confusing, and caring for a family member can be challenging. Our Director of Nursing oversees all care at every level, whether personal or skilled. Our RNs give our patients and their family members access to insight regarding home safety and health-related concerns like COVID. If you have questions about your security at home alone or any follow-up questions, feel free to ask us, and we will offer expert advice.
