What COVID-19 means for you as a child and family member?

We see the disappointment, we see the anxiety and we also see ‘Not Applicable’ on our members’ faces. COVID-19 is looking like a tsunami that is sweeping through the shores and messing up routine life like never imagined before.

For Senior Citizens, it is time to take some simple precautions:

  • Doctor Visits: If it is a standard check-up, or routine follow-up, perhaps it can wait. For follow-ups after medical tests, see if this can be done on the phone.
  • Functions to attend: Its like the decision to bat first after a toss... Evaluate how important the function is, how close the relationships are and then decide to participate online.
  • Medication: Don’t have to stock up on medications overly, not yet
  • Emergency Help: Have a ‘go to’ person for emergencies – and this includes flu like symptoms.
  • Groceries: Let us help you order these and have them delivered to your door step.
  • Limit the number of visitors to the house. All those who come home should wear a mask and wash their hands before they do anything else.
  • Mask - When interacting with anyone other than residents of your home, wear a mask, preferably double masks with the disposable surgical mask inside and a cloth mask outside.

    • Prayojana Chennai and Bengaluru COVID19 Precautionary Instruction for Senior Citizen & Family

    Statistics gathered so far suggest that ‘People over the age of 80 may want to exercise even more caution. A report published in the medical journal JAMA that examined more than 72,000 Chinese coronavirus patients found that the overall fatality rate was 2.3%. But in adults over 80, the fatality rate is above 15%!

    The mental aspects are tougher. Let’s take the case of this 88-year old senior citizen who has been looking forward to her daughter’s visit for the last 3 months. Now, she doesn’t know when her daughter is going to visit from Europe. For most senior citizens, particularly in cricket-crazy-Chennai & Bangalore, sporting events are like weddings – they are big events.. Suddenly, the summer will seem hotter and prolonged.

    If you are staying away from your parents, abroad or in a different city, couple of things for you to consider:

  • Just increase the number times you call them, preferably video calls
  • Have a mechanism to surround them with additional help/support

    • In any case, we are there. Just sign up above or contact us for any specific questions you might have.
