Caroline Forbes, Practice Nurse, Medical Corner, Rangiora and Farmer

1. Panadol
2. Masks and gloves – basically good health information – hand hygiene a must! 
3. Cleaning products and soap – to ensure that good health information is put into action
4. Plenty of food and water (we live on a farm so that’s a bonus for the food) 
5. Clear head – whether to go to work or not – maybe not a must have but a must think as there will be a lot of pressure on health professionals 
6. Plenty of dog food 
7. Entertainment for the teenagers in the house – as they will be confined for weeks on end
8. Entertainment for the parents – as we will be confined for weeks on end with angst-ridden teenagers
9. Tamiflu – to use during a pandemic or maybe to use to avoid getting the flu in the first place 
10. A fully charged phone – as a practice nurse I will be spending a lot of time on the phone to patients and health professionals
