I Tested Positive For COVID-19. Now What?

I Tested Positive for COVID-19. Now What?

image

COVID-19, the illness caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, is extremely contagious. If you test positive for COVID-19—or suspect that you have it—it is important that you follow recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to stop the spread.

Path to improved health

If you test positive for COVID-19, you need to isolate yourself from other people. Stay away from others. You still need to isolate even if you are asymptomatic, which means that you aren’t showing any symptoms of illness.

In this speedy age it’s hard to maintain health and fitness. We need a lot of time, money and expertise. For the same reason the doctors and Physicians are recommending fitness supplements more than ever. These formulae work best if you are recommended the best. Being a nutritionist, I am recommending a Best Weight Loss Supplement For many months. It gives my clients speedy results, satisfaction and stability. Zero side Effects.

It’s an excellent Fat cutter, energizer, cancer prevention, age restriction, immunity booster and health glower at the same time and in the short time. In maximum 7 weeks you get a slim smart body, shining cheeks, active brain and high level (tested) of immunity. Click Here to see its review.

Most people who do show symptoms of COVID-19 are only mildly ill. COVID-19 symptoms may include:

Fever or chills

Fatigue

Cough

Shortness of breath

Sore throat

New loss of taste or smell

Headache

Muscle or body aches

Congestion or runny nose

Nausea or vomiting

Diarrhea

If you begin to develop more severe symptoms, contact your doctor immediately.

How do I isolate with COVID-19?

Isolating is simple. Stay home except to go get medical care. If you live with other people, stay away from them as much as possible. Stay in a specific room. If possible, use a separate bathroom from the rest of the household. If you need to be in common areas, wear a mask over your nose and mouth.

Things to consider

When can I be around other people if I tested positive for COVID-19 and did not have symptoms?

If you tested positive for COVID-19 but continue to have no symptoms, the CDC says to stay home for 10 days after the date of your positive test.

If you need to end your isolation earlier than 10 days, your doctor may recommend repeat testing. This is only if testing is available in your community. If you can get another test, you should have two negative tests in a row to end isolation. The tests should be more than 24 hours apart.

When can I be around other people if I tested positive for COVID-19 and had symptoms?

If you tested positive for COVID-19 (or if you did not take a test but believe you had it), you can be around others when all three of the following criteria are met:

Ten days have passed since you first experienced symptoms.

You have gone 24 hours with no fever. This must be without the use of fever-reducing medications, like ibuprofen.

The other COVID-19 symptoms you experienced are improving.

The CDC says that most people who had symptoms don’t require another COVID-19 test to be around others. As long as you follow all of the above rules, you should be able to end isolation without risking getting others sick.

If you were severely ill with COVID-19 or are immunocompromised, you may need to isolate for longer than 10 days. If this is the case, speak with your doctor.

When to see your doctor

If you suspect you have COVID-19, call your doctor to learn where to get tested in your area. If you have already tested positive for COVID-19 and your symptoms get worse, call your doctor immediately. If you have difficulty breathing or other emergency symptoms, call 911 or go to an emergency room.

It wasn’t always this way though. Many centuries ago, turmeric was a well-kept secret of its native country of origin, India. Sure, there were a few other places in the Middle East where it was sold, but it has only been in recent years that the United States finally began including it as a common cooking ingredient for adding a smoky flavor and color to otherwise bland dishes.

Once it became established here though, its popularity quickly grew, especially once people found out that it has medicinal properties that make it suitable for aiding in the process of weight loss. Read on to discover how turmeric can help you with weight loss. continue…

Developing a Care Plan

image

Everybody has a health history. Maybe you have a chronic (long-lasting) medical condition. Perhaps you take some prescription medicines on a regular basis. Or maybe you just take over-the-counter medicines for minor body aches every now and then. Whatever your situation, it’s important to record your health history. This is done with care plans.

Path to improved health

A care plan is a list of all items related to your health. This plan will cover everything from your medical conditions to your health insurance information, and more. It’s a way to keep track of all your medical information in one place.

In this speedy age it’s hard to maintain health and fitness. We need a lot of time, money and expertise. For the same reason the doctors and Physicians are recommending fitness supplements more than ever. These formulae work best if you are recommended the best. Being a nutritionist, I am recommending a Best Weight Loss Supplement For many months. It gives my clients speedy results, satisfaction and stability. Zero side Effects.

It’s an excellent Fat cutter, energizer, cancer prevention, age restriction, immunity booster and health glower at the same time and in the short time. In maximum 7 weeks you get a slim smart body, shining cheeks, active brain and high level (tested) of immunity. Click Here to see its review.

You can find blank care plan forms online or you can ask your doctor for one. No matter where you get your form, take it to your next doctor’s appointment and have your doctor help you complete it. Sometimes a close family member can help you complete part of it, too.

There are two basic types of care plans. Each one serves a different purpose so it’s important to complete both types.

Complete Care Plan

This type of care plan outlines your complete health history. It’s broken into several sections:

Your personal information. Include your name, address, and birth date.

Your medical conditions. Be sure to include all conditions you may have, such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease, etc. If you are taking medicine to keep a problem under control, it still needs to be listed (such as high blood pressure or cholesterol).

Your current medicines. Include the name and dosage information for any prescription or over-the-counter medicines you take.

Your doctor. Note your doctor’s name, their office address, and phone number. Be sure to include information for all the doctors and specialists you have.

Your health insurance information. Include the name of your insurance company and its phone number. Be sure to include information for all insurance policies you have, including Medicare and/or Medicaid.

Your hospital of choice. List the hospital you’d like to go to, if you had a choice. Include the hospital name and phone number.

Your caregiver information. If someone comes into your home to help you, note their information on the complete care plan. This includes people who provide services such as visiting nurses, home health aides, or therapists. For each caregiver, provide the person’s name, the name of the company they work for, and that company’s phone number.

Your advanced care planning information. This section includes any legal documents you have, such as a will or power of attorney. It’s best to attach these legal documents to the plan.

Your emergency contact. This is the person you’d want to be contacted if something happened to you and you were unable to contact them yourself. This may be a family member or a trusted friend. You may want to include more than one person as an emergency contact. For each person, include their name, their relationship to you, and their phone number.

Once your complete care plan is filled out, be sure to share it with your doctor. Also take it to your doctor’s appointments throughout the year. Ask your doctor to review it and let you know if anything needs to be updated. Take it with you if you go to the hospital for any reason. It may provide the doctors the information they need to treat you. Also share it with a trusted family member or friend in case they need to share it with a medical professional if you’re unable to do so yourself. It’s best if this family member or friend is also one of your emergency contacts.

Daily Care Plan

The information in a daily care plan is similar to that in the complete care plan. However, it’s not as detailed. A daily care plan will include:

Your medical conditions

Your current medicines

Your insurance information

Advanced care planning information

Your emergency contact

A daily care plan’s purpose is to provide the day-to-day information people need if they care for you in your home. Each of your caregivers can refer to the plan as the single source of information about your health. In order for the plan to be seen by all caregivers, post it in a central, easy-to-see location. Many people choose to post the plan on their refrigerator.

Things to consider

Once you’ve completed your care plans, be sure to review and update them as needed. Good times to update them include if you add a new medicine or stop taking a current one. Other times to update the plans include if you’re diagnosed with a new health condition, if you want to change your emergency contact, or if you update any advance planning information. At the very least, review your plans once a year.

Questions for your doctor

Who should I share my care plans with?

Why should I complete both care plans?

Will you help me update my plans?

5 steps to mental well-being

image

Evidence suggests there are 5 steps you can take to improve your mental health and wellbeing. Trying these things could help you feel more positive and able to get the most out of life.

1. Connect with other people

Good relationships are important for your mental wellbeing. They can:

help you to build a sense of belonging and self-worth

give you an opportunity to share positive experiences

provide emotional support and allow you to support others

There are lots of things you could try to help build stronger and closer relationships:

Do

if possible, take time each day to be with your family, for example, try arranging a fixed time to eat dinner together

arrange a day out with friends you have not seen for a while

try switching off the TV to talk or play a game with your children, friends or family

have lunch with a colleague

In this speedy age it’s hard to maintain health and fitness. We need a lot of time, money and expertise.

visit a friend or family member who needs support or company volunteer at a local school, hospital or community group.

make the most of technology to stay in touch with friends and family. Video-chat apps like Skype and FaceTime are useful, especially if you live far apart search and download online community apps on the NHS apps library

Don’t

do not rely on technology or social media alone to build relationships. It’s easy to get into the habit of only ever texting, messaging or emailing people

2. Be physically active

Being active is not only great for your physical health and fitness. Evidence also shows it can also improve your mental wellbeing by:

raising your self-esteem

helping you to set goals or challenges and achieve them

causing chemical changes in your brain which can help to positively change your mood

Do

if you have a disability or long-term health condition, find out about getting active with a disability

start running with our couch to 5k podcasts

find out how to start swimming, cycling or dancing

find out about getting started with exercise

Don’t

do not feel that you have to spend hours in a gym. It’s best to find activities you enjoy and make them a part of your life

3. Learn new skills

Research shows that learning new skills can also improve your mental wellbeing by:

boosting self-confidence and raising self-esteem

helping you to build a sense of purpose

helping you to connect with others

Even if you feel like you do not have enough time, or you may not need to learn new things, there are lots of different ways to bring learning into your life.

Some of the things you could try include:

Do

try learning to cook something new. Find out about healthy eating and cooking tips

try taking on a new responsibility at work, such as mentoring a junior staff member or improving your presentation skills

work on a DIY project, such as fixing a broken bike, garden gate or something bigger. There are lots of free video tutorials online

consider signing up for a course at a local college. You could try learning a new language or a practical skill such as plumbing

try new hobbies that challenge you, such as writing a blog, taking up a new sport or learning to paint

Don’t

do not feel you have to learn new qualifications or sit exams if this does not interest you. It’s best to find activities you enjoy and make them a part of your life

4. Give to others

Research suggests that acts of giving and kindness can help improve your mental wellbeing by:

creating positive feelings and a sense of reward

giving you a feeling of purpose and self-worth

helping you connect with other people

It could be small acts of kindness towards other people, or larger ones like volunteering in your local community.

Some examples of the things you could try include:

saying thank you to someone for something they have done for you

asking friends, family or colleagues how they are and really listening to their answer

spending time with friends or relatives who need support or company

offering to help someone you know with DIY or a work project

volunteering in your community, such as helping at a school, hospital or care home

5. Pay attention to the present moment (mindfulness)

Paying more attention to the present moment can improve your mental wellbeing. This includes your thoughts and feelings, your body and the world around you.

Some people call this awareness “mindfulness”. Mindfulness can help you enjoy life more and understand yourself better. It can positively change the way you feel about life and how you approach challenges.
