Below applies to those and their loved ones who are in the hospital with a Covid diagnosis but remain conscious.
- If you haven’t yet received Remdesivir, and DO NOT want it, state that in writing and give it to your doctors. Post a copy by your hospital bed.
- If you DO NOT want to be placed on a ventilator, state that in writing and give it to your doctors. Post a copy by your hospital bed.
Be prepared for the hospital to try, hard, to change your mind about those two treatments. This pressure may come when you are weakest. Be ready.
Many people believe that Covid is best treated at home. Your circumstances may vary.
To get an opinion from a telemedicine specialist in at-home Covid care visit:
If you decide that you prefer to treat your Covid at home or can find a non-corporate independent clinic somewhere that will accept you, discharge yourself. If the hospital pushes back on discharge, you may need to discharge yourself “Against Medical Advice,” or AMA. Ask if your hospital has its own form, otherwise google one.
