We have put together a short list to give you some ideas:Offer as a gift good home-cooked meals.Offer a home-made confection (souvenir, painting, knitting, small special attention, etc.).Offer an amount of money in a wish card that you will have made yourself, or personalized with a beautiful thought.Shop online or pick-up drive.

Therefore, they can unknowingly spread the virus to others. It is therefore essential to respect the hygiene and social distancing instructions at all times and with everyone, even your loved ones.How do we usually contract COVID-19?The virus is transmitted from one infected person to others through respiratory droplets created when that person coughs, sneezes, sings, screams, talks, etc. Respiratory droplets can be very small, stay in the air for a few minutes and settle on almost any surface, object, clothing, skin, etc.Close contactIf you are within 2 meters of an infected person, without a mask AND eye protection, for 10 non-consecutive minutes, you are at high risk. You must then isolate yourself for 14 days, even if you have followed the best hygiene techniques. Therefore, distancing is essential.Cross-contaminationIf an infected person touches an object or surface and you touch it while the virus is still alive, you will carry the virus. If you touch your face, mouth, nose, eyes ... without washing your hands, you will become infected. The virus can also be spread when a carrier touches another person (shaking hands, hugging, kissing, etc.). -6466840321420p.3020000p.311352723-32415400During your visit, you must:When entering the apartment, go first to the bathroom to change your clothes and wash your hands.The mask must be worn on both sides (caregiver and resident) and for the entire visit.
