COVID-19 Updates and Resources

During these uncertain times, there is a lot of information circulating around Coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Ultimately, we all want to know how to stay safe and healthy. But we also need to know how to protect our healthcare professionals on the front lines and our most vulnerable populations.

At Supplemental Health Care, we have established an interdisciplinary team of registered nurses, compliance officers, legal experts, and more to monitor the situation daily and to offer guidance on policies, innovative employment solutions, and rapid responses as the situation continues to develop.

Resources

To stay informed about the COVID-19 pandemic, we recommend that you subscribe to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) email updates and listen to your local government officials for how your city and state are currently handling the outbreak. These are the best places for the most current, reliable information.

For healthcare professionals, it’s important to take care of yourself while you are caring for others. Be sure to check out the CDC’s page for managing stress and anxiety during the COVID-19 outbreak. The site also includes a section dedicated to information for healthcare professionals including topics like clinical and home care guidance, potential exposure, personal protective equipment, and more. There are also general updates, a symptom self-checker, and advice on how to reduce the spread of COVID-19 available from the CDC here.

If you’re wondering how SHC is monitoring and updating our healthcare professionals about the latest COVID-19 news, we have an FAQs page to answer those questions.
