We've covered food and medications and you know how to reach a doctor from home. The last thing I want to cover is mental health. Are you doing okay with everything going on?
That's great to hear! Do you have some friends, family, or neighbors you can lean on if that changes?
This is tough stuff. We've never been through something like this before so that's understandable. Do you have friends, family, or neighbors you can lean on?
No
That's okay. You're not the only one who has expressed that, and I want you to know the city has organized support so everyone has someone to talk to. Can I share those resources with you?
No
That's great. It sounds like you're well supported. If that changes or you think you'd benefit from speaking with someone else, there are lots of resources available including the New York State Emotional Support Hotline at 1-844-863-9314.
Refer to mental health and safety resources. Escalate safety, self harm, or harm to others directly to assigned social worker.
