The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of post-acute rehabilitation for individuals recovering from the virus. Many survivors experience lingering symptoms, known as long COVID, which can include fatigue, shortness of breath, and cognitive difficulties, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach to rehabilitation.Post-acute rehabilitation programs for COVID-19 survivors often involve physical therapists, respiratory therapists, occupational therapists, and other specialists. These programs focus on rebuilding strength, improving respiratory function, and addressing cognitive challenges that may persist after the acute phase of the illness.Exercise regimens are tailored to individual needs, considering the severity of the initial infection and the specific symptoms experienced during recovery. Pulmonary rehabilitation is a key component, aiming to restore lung function and alleviate respiratory symptoms.Psychological support is integral to post-acute COVID-19 rehabilitation, as survivors may face mental health challenges such as anxiety and depression. Therapists collaborate to address both physical and mental health aspects, promoting holistic recovery.
