The tool targetsÌýpatients who are no longer infected but are continuing to recover and rehabilitate at home. By delivering aspects ofÌýrehabilitationÌýremotely, the programme helps NHS staff support more patients than would normally be possible in a timely and cost-effective way. As of November 2021, Living With Covid Recovery isÌýhelping over 2,890 patients with their recovery across 30Ìýclinics in 20ÌýNHS trusts. There are plans to roll out to more hospitals soon to meet the growing need for this support.Ìý

The rehabilitation tool targets primary symptoms that ‘long-haulers’ report experiencing for many weeks and even months after the peak of their infection – such as fatigue, anxiety and breathing problems. It combines evidence-based methods from physiotherapists, psychologists, dieticians and respiratory physicians to create bespoke treatment plans for each patient.
