COVID-19

What is COVID-19?

COVID-19 is a viral infection caused by the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. It can cause symptoms ranging from mild respiratory issues to severe illness, affecting the lungs and other organs.

Is Telehealth Right for COVID-19 Management?

Telehealth is highly effective for initial assessments, monitoring mild symptoms, and providing guidance on isolation and recovery. However, severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing require immediate in-person care.

When to Use Telehealth for COVID-19

• Symptom Evaluation: Discuss symptoms like fever, cough, or fatigue with an NP.
  
• Home Care Advice: Receive guidance on managing symptoms and reducing the risk of spreading the virus.
  
• Medication Management: Obtain prescriptions for symptom relief and manage underlying conditions that may be affected by COVID-19.

How Telehealth Works

1. Remote Consultations: Safely consult with a Nurse Practitioner from home.
2. Personalised Guidance: Get tailored advice based on your symptoms and health history.
3. Monitoring and Support: Regular follow-ups to monitor your progress and adjust care as needed.

FAQs

• Can telehealth confirm if I have COVID-19? While telehealth cannot provide a test, NPs can assess your symptoms and refer you for testing if necessary.
• What if my symptoms worsen? Your NP will guide you on the next steps and advise if in-person care is needed.
