COVID-19 resources toolkit
With isolation due to COVID-19, we may have feelings of anxiety and depression. It is important to have the resources and tools that you need to cope during these uncertain times. We’ve created a toolkit from credible sources on ways to take care of yourself during COVID-19.
How to stay connected during self-isolation
Social distancing is an important measure for fighting the spread of COVID-19 in our communities, but it poses some challenges for seniors such as feeling connected during these unprecedented times. Thanks to modern-day technology, it is easier now than ever before to stay in touch with your family and friends.
