COVID-19





What to do if you are sick:


If you are experiencing fever and symptoms of respiratory illness, such as cough or difficulty breathing, and have been in close contact with a person known to have COVID-19, OR if you live in or have recently traveled to an area with ongoing COVID-19 spread please call ahead to a healthcare professional before coming in to seek medical treatment.

Call your provider and let them know that you are concerned you may have Coronavirus or COVID-19 and would like to speak with a member of Nursing Administration. If your symptoms are mild, it is likely that you will be able to isolate yourself and treat your symptoms at home. More severe cases could require medical attention. We will help you decide the safest way to seek medical care while limiting the number of people exposed.

Persons at risk for severe complications from COVID-19
The available data is currently insufficient to confirm risk factors for severe risk, but it is believed that older adults, those with certain chronic conditions, and those with compromised immunity are at the highest risk for severe outcomes if infected with COVID-19.

What you can do to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 and other respiratory illnesses:

Stay home when you are sick.
Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially before eating, and after going to the bathroom, blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
If washing your hands is not an option, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash. Do not reuse a tissue.
Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
