Covid isolation

Posted By Thanks19

"Covid isolation"

About: Prince of Wales Hospital / ASB 3S - Community Management Centre

(as the patient),

My partner and I both tested positive to Covid but because I suffer from asthma I was given extra care and attention which included the home delivery of an oxygen meter. We were also directed to a respiratory clinic who prescribed the anti-viral medication for us immediately. In addition to the Covid, I have suffered with either a sinus infection and/or tooth problem which has proven extremely painful. Apparently, I can't be seen by either my ENT specialist or Dentist for a period of 14 days after Covid diagnosis. The Oxygen/ Pulse test is monitored twice daily and on one occasion when I felt anxious because of the associated pain, I was contacted immediately by a staff member. 

I cannot express enough my gratitude concerning the care and attention that I have been given. Recently, I received a phone call saying I was clear to leave isolation and once again I thanked the staff for the amazing care I have been given.
