Know Where to Go

To keep yourself and everyone around you safe, it’s best to call your doctor from home if you or a family member feels under the weather. Your physician can advise you on next steps to take to feel better. To stay on the safe side, follow these steps to get help for coronavirus symptoms:

If you or someone you love has coronavirus symptoms like fever, dry coughing and difficulty breathing, please do not rush to your doctor or urgent care. To avoid the spread of coronavirus, you should avoid the emergency room at your local hospital except in cases of an emergency. The best first step is to call your primary care physician. They’ll help you understand your symptoms and advise on next steps. We know this guidance is different from what you’d normally do, but remember that during this time, it’s important to keep yourself safe and also avoid getting other people sick.

You can safely see your doctor during the coronavirus outbreak. An in-person visit may not be the safest choice during the outbreak (for you or anyone else in the doctor’s office) so call your doctor from home if you need medical care. To visit with a medical provider virtually from your smartphone or tablet, you can download the AdventHealth app to have a video visit. During this telemedicine appointment, you can video chat with a physician, explain your symptoms, get a diagnosis and even get a prescription that suits your needs.

On your phone call or video visit with your doctor, they can tell you what to do to feel better, based on your symptoms. Your provider can tell you whether to visit their office for examination, go to an urgent care or go to an emergency department near you — just be sure to get their approval before you leave home unless it’s an emergency.

Signs of Coronavirus?

If you’ve recently visited an impacted area or been in contact with someone who has, and are showing signs of the infection, we encourage you to speak with a doctor. The best way to do this is to call your primary care physician, closest urgent care or schedule a video visit through the AdventHealth app.

If you’re immunocompromised or have other underlying health conditions, and you have coronavirus symptoms, please contact your primary care physician for personalized recommendations.
