October 2009 has already seen record numbers of flu cases in doctor’s offices. We would like to remind you that the H1N1 flu is still something of which to be aware.

With simple precautions, we can reduce the spread of the influenza to others.

If you are experiencing signs such as a sore throat, cough, fever (but not always present in H1N1), and muscle soreness you should limit your exposure to others.  With the exception of visits to your primary care physician, or the hospital, you should reschedule non urgent visits outside your home.

Visits to our office should be rescheduled if you are experiencing the above symptoms.

A new website has been established to better guide you if a visit to see your primary care doctor is necessary and if you should stay home from work/school:

        Flu.gov 

If you are still unsure if you should reschedule your Rocky Mountain Associated Physicians appointment or not, please don’t hesitate to contact our office at (801) 268-3800.

Make sure to wash your hands frequently throughout the day, and/or carry hand sanitizer with you. Remember, that after 10 consecutive uses of hand sanitizer, it is no longer effective and a hand wash is necessary. Drink plenty of water throughout the day, get adequate rest (8 hours/day), and eat properly.

Time to take care of you and yours!
