Today's Tip: Emergency Situations and PPE

In an emergency situation, common items can be used as a substitute for various pieces of personal protection equipment (PPE), though they may not provide the same level of protection as actual PPE can. Instances can include using a plastic bag as a substitute for gloves or mouth-to-mouth barriers; tightly woven clothing, such as Goretex, can provide a barrier for your hands and skin; Sunglasses and eyeglasses can be used if protective eye wear is unavailable.
