It’s important that we take care of each other and maintain social connection. You can do your part by:
Staying informed - use and share information from reputable sources, such as the Department of Health and Human Services
Keep connected - reach out to your family, friends and work colleagues through FaceTime and WhatsApp
Support your community - look out for your neighbours and say hello from afar
Do not panic buy - hoarding harms vulnerable people
Live in the moment - Relive beautiful memories through meaningful conversations on the phone
During uncertain times it’s important to remember Austin Health is here for you.
