Hazardous Items List

We find it necessary to ask family members, friends, or responsible parties to refrain from bringing any type of hazardous item into this facility. These items may include anything with the label of “CAUTION”, “KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN”, “HAZARDOUS”, etc.

Some examples of hazardous items are:
a. Any aerosol sprays (hair spray, spray deodorant, air freshener, etc.)
b. Deodorizers (liquid, solid, spray, stickups, etc)
c. Disinfectants, cleaning supplies
d. Nail polish or nail polish remover
e. Extension cords
f. Electric blanket

If you prefer for your family member to use their own personal bar of soap, please remember that it must be kept in a covered soap dish with the resident’s name on it.

Also note, that no medications are allowed in the resident room without doctor’s orders. This includes over-the-counter medications. They may seem harmless to you; however, many medications counteract prescribed medications.

Examples are:
a. Vicks VapoRub, any type of creams/lotions for arthritis
b. Triple antibiotic ointment, Campho-Phenique, etc.
c. Tums, Rolaids, Mylanta, Tylenol, aspirin, etc.
d. Diuretics, laxatives, stool soften, etc.

All food (such as cookies, crackers, candy, cakes, and fruit) brought into the facility by family members that is not pre-wrapped should be kept in a covered plastic container.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the facility at 479-968-4141.

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
