Three months later in June 2020 COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing measures are still resulting in many Australians staying indoors and limiting their normal daily routines. This is not an easy situation for anyone to manage.
Queensland-based supplier of Nurse Call Systems, Electrotek understands the criticality of providing care for carers. Theo Kuppens and Neil Davey, Electrotek leadership team, explained: “While our unique INDUNA wireless Nurse Call System is changing the lives of nurses by negating alarm fatigue, our company actively supports and encourages mental self-care and coping strategies for all Australia’s paid and unpaid health carers.”
To be an effective carer you need to balance the health and wellbeing of the person you are caring for, with your own sense of wellness and fulfillment. You need time and space to look after yourself. Make sure you find opportunities to relax, have fun and take time out when you need it.
Some simple and helpful caring hints for carers:
“If COVID-19 can be thanked for anything, it might be for creating an unprecedented focus on mental health and promoting the community to take stock of what counts when it comes to mental wellbeing.
Some wonderful things have occurred amidst the overload of bad and heartbreaking news, things that could ultimately bring us back as a more cohesive and resilient society, positioning us to better deal with mental illness and guide us on how to better support each other generally.
The facts are almost half (45%) of adults will experience a mental health issue at some point in their lives, and each year around one in five people will; but with the right information and support, most will get better or go on recovery journeys resulting in fulfilling and meaningful lives.
Sure, what we’re going through with COVID-19 is extreme, with people being affected in different ways. But understand there’s nothing unusual about feeling unsettled or anxious in the face of uncertainty – that’s part of being human. If it’s persistent or debilitating though, take the next steps – talk to a friend, your GP, a counselor, call a helpline or the 1800 011 511 Mental Health Line, a professional advice and referral service.
Thankfully, we’re far better informed and equipped as a society to deal with mental health issues. When we come through the other side of COVID-19, we’ll probably be another ten paces ahead, freer to engage with each other and have better senses of wellbeing and social connectedness.”
