He needs to stay isolated in one area of the home if possible and use a separate bathroom. He needs to practice good hand hygiene by washing his hands regularly with soap and water. He also needs to avoid touching his nose or mouth. If he must come out of his area of the house, he needs to wear a mask at all times.
