Post COVID symptoms
Post-COVID patients may experience lingering symptoms of the virus, ranging from fatigue, cough, shortness of breath, confusion, memory issues, among others. Lingering symptoms could be debilitating, and prevent someone from returning to their pre-COVID lifestyle and routines. In these instances, individuals may become concerned about their physical and mental health due to the frustration of recovering fully from the virus and a concern for their overall health and well-being.
Healthcare facilities are expanding services to help these special circumstances to help people manage their care better, like ECHN, who has implemented a COVID Recovery Resource Line.

iHeartCommunities to dedicate day to New Haven Fire Department. May God Bless FF Ricardo Rico Torres, thank you for your service. While we honor Torres, we want to wish Lt Rankins a speedy recovery, as he was also found unconscious during that same fire and is recovering at Bridgeport Hospital..

Healthy Tip: Stress Management
Today, our world is all about multitasking. Between work, family obligations, hobbies, and everyday responsibilities, it’s easy to feel maxed out and stressed. This may seem a normal part of life, but did you know that stress could be impacting your risk for developing chronic illnesses?
Things you can do to manage stress:
Be intentional with your rest.
Get outside, exercise or do something that refreshes you – something as simple as taking a walk.
Get organized – Write out a to-do list, clean up a messy space, or organize a junk drawer to clear your head.
