Patient Education
As part of CHS discharge planning, and before release from custody, all patients/inmates in Medical Observation/Isolation are educated regarding COVID-19. Education and instructions include but are not limited to the following:
- The number of quarantine days remaining until completion of the protocol,
- To follow-up with a provider in the community if symptoms develop or worsen (fever, shortness of breath, cough), and
- To stay at home in isolation for ten (10) days after testing positive for COVID-19, with three (3) days symptoms free.
Patients are also recommended to follow up with Public Health.
