The purposes of Home-Based Isolation and Care for COVID-19
- Provide home based isolation and care to confirmed COVID-19 cases who have no symptoms or with mild symptoms in their home to reduce the burden on health facilities as the number of COVID-19 cases rise.
- Prioritize health facility care for high risk patients that likely experience severe symptoms and poor outcomes.
- Reduce the spread of COVID-19 infection in the community by supporting COVID-19 patients to stay safely at home while their symptoms are monitored.
