Three Steps to Protect Your Health During COVID-19

The average patient with a wound has three to four chronic conditions, so COVID-19 is a real threat to your health. Please follow these simple steps to protect your health.

1. Stay on the path to healing
   • Stay home and only go out for essential needs and care
   • Practice social distancing by keeping a six-foot distance from others
   • Keep your hands clean by using soap and water for at least 20 seconds
   • Practice healthy habits such as maintaining a healthy diet and staying active
   • Listen to your doctor’s advice
   • Get adequate sleep, nutrients and exercise
   • Maintain your wound care visits
   • Adhere to your care plan to increase your odds of healing
2. See your doctor
   • Wound care is essential and regular visits will help you heal faster
   • If you can’t get to a Wound Care Center®, the Healogics Telehealth option gives you access to a wound care provider
3. Stay vigilant
   • Even if you have already healed, wounds can reoccur, so check your feet regularly
   • Wounds and sores should not be ignored
