For the past few months I’ve been working with a COVID Community team. We try to help people manage COVID safely at home.

Inspired by my patients and the fabulous hard working team, I’ve put together some short informative vids.

More on the way

This vid was originally recorded to help our #COVID19Vic patients navigate the “COVID system” and explain why they received so many phone calls.

Now I hear people are not getting called at all 😞. Sharing v2

When people with #COVID19 first come in contact with us, we try to do an ‘initial assessment’.

It’s not just about the symptoms. It’s about offering extra support/treatment & protecting others in the household

There’s some useful links in the description to the pandemic support payment, food and emergency accom.

It’s VIC centric, so please feel free to add some local resources in the comments

I’m now trying to share the vids on Instagram.

The largest group of COVID cases is 20-29 yos.

With over 400,000 active cases 🇦🇺today, there’s no way everyone with COVID will come into contact with a health service.

My latest video outlines the progression of COVID and why we may ask to keep checking in on you, even once you’ve been cleared from iso.

Thankfully, most people will get better after the early phase. Especially if you’re vaxed. Hint hint.
