COVID19 - PRACTICAL ADVICE


C = Committed Action Frequent handwashing, social distancing, avoid touching eyes/nose/mouth, follow guidelines.

H = Help others Kind words in a comment, help with a task or chore, a phonecall to a friends or family member, no matter how big or small, help.

A = Awareness Ask people how they're feeling, pay attention, use observation and listening skills and ask people how they'd prefer to be supported.

R = Respectful Avoid intrusive questions, treat everyone fairly, make yourself available to listen and treat information with respect and in confidence.

G = Gameplan Identify resources for help, assistance, support, and advice. Make sure you know the helpline numbers, including psychological help if required.

E = Empathy Only read reliable sources, listen and seek understanding, don't feel pressured to have the answers, see the individual and not their diagnosis.

R = Rationalise Rationalising the fear, these things are merely a set back. We will get through it, and come back stronger, together.

S = Safety First It’s worth repeating: disinfect your hands regularly, maintain social distancing (at least 1m) as much as possible (physical distancing – not cutting off emotionally), practice respiratory hygiene, If you have fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical care early.
