How Zoonoses is Implimented...

Vaccinations: Birds at the sanctuary are no vaccinated as they are wild birds and will be released back into the wild once they are better. Instead of vaccinations workers much take care to keep them selves well covered to avoid infections e.g gloves should be worn to avoid too much contact with the birds.

PPE: When handling the birds dust masks and gloves should be worn to avoid breathing in dust made from the birds and also gloves should be worn to minimise the amount of skin contact with the birds. You should ensure that you never touch your face or mouth if you have recently had contact with a bird and have not disinfected your hands.

Visitors: when visitors arrive they are usually only allowed into the office area, they are kept away from the birds as most of them are I'll of injured and the presents of too many people could stress them out. Also the visitors may not be aware of the diseases some birds may carry and should be fully aware before being around birds in a contained environment.

Clean and Healthy: The birds cages are thoroughly cleaned every day with warm soapy water, this is important as leaving them in an unclean and solid area is not only a concern for their welfare but also can increase the time taken for their recovery. The birds are fed fresh food every on the specific diet for their needs keeping them healthy.
