Assessing Your Risk of Exposure
• Risk Identification – the risk is Influenza infection
• Risk Assessment – what are activities or tasks that you do that might bring you into contact with Influenza?
• Think about the modes of transmission

Assessing Your Risk of Exposure
To determine what type of PPE you should be using, ask yourself 3 questions:
1. Where are my opportunities for exposure to H1N1?

2. What tasks put me at most risk? From whom?

3. Where am I performing my task(s)? Are there other people with influenza like illness (ILI) symptoms present?
