Covid Care in the Community

Covid Care in the Community – The Manual

Welcome to the CitC manual, where we compile information for primary health providers detailing how to support people who test positive for Covid-19 in the Otago-Southland region.

The emphasis is on providing safe and appropriate care to our communities as people self-isolate during their Covid-19 infection. The elements within this manual will be updated as required, as this is a new and evolving space for us all.

Structure of this manual is:

Overview of how care will be provided in the Otago-Southland region.
Answers to common questions that might come up when you are providing clinical care.
Patient information/resources patients receive and other patient information links
Funding information
Other resources, including technical and IT information.

Please note these resources will be updated as more information becomes available.
