What to Do If You are Feeling Ill

If you or a loved one develop a fever, cough, shortness of breath or other respiratory symptoms, here are a few steps to take:

Call Ahead If you are feeling ill and think you may have symptoms of COVID-19, your first step should be to call your doctor’s office. Your provider can assess your symptoms and recommend next steps which may include collection of a nasal swab for lab testing.

Self Quarantine While you await any test results for COVID-19, it is important that you please self-quarantine. Some detailed information and resources for self quarantine are available on the CDC website, cdc.gov.

Guidance includes: • stay home and isolate yourself from others in your family; • wear a facemask; • cover your coughs and sneezes; • avoid sharing personal household items; • clean your hands often; • clean all "high-touch" surfaces in your house every day; • monitor your symptoms; • if your symptoms worsen while you are at home, please call your physician or healthcare facility; and • in case of emergency, please call 911.
