To MHMR patients and families:
My Health My Resources (MHMR) of Tarrant County takes the health and wellness of the people we serve, staff and community seriously. For updates regarding COVID-19, we encourage families to visit Tarrant County Public Health website.
We remain in regular contact with Tarrant County Public Health and follow the advice and recommendations from relevant local, state and federal health and community leaders regarding necessary precautions and protocols, including when to open or close or reduce services.
Telehealth:
We are pleased to be able to offer telehealth to many of our patients during this time. Having a visit by telephone or video conference will allow you to continue to access MHMR services fromyour home.
Additional Screening and Cleaning:
For the safety of our patients and staff, we will be screening all people entering MHMR facilities and calling all patients/families before home visits. MHMR also has taken steps to continue to mitigate risk by implementing cleaning procedures and enhanced hygiene practices.
We recommend the following steps to protect against COVID-19:
- Wear a mask or face covering.
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom, before eating, and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
- Stay home if you are sick. If you have a fever, please stay home until you are fever-free for 24-hours without the use of fever-reducing medication.
- Cover your mouth and nose with the inside of your elbow when you cough or sneeze, or use a tissue, and then throw the tissue in the trash.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipes.
- Maintain physical distancing of at least 6 feet from others.
As the situation is rapidly evolving, we will continue to monitor and provide additional guidance when available through the CDC, Department of State Health Services or Tarrant County Public Health. Thank you for your supportive partnership as we work to ensure the safety of the people we serve and staff.
