Team Rehabilitation Post COVID-19 Recovery Program

Rehab and Physical Therapy

Team Rehabilitation has developed a Post COVID-19 Recovery Program to assist all patients affected by COVID-19 with their recovery and allow them to return to work and daily living. The Program is designed to help patients, using medically supervised therapy, so they may regain strength, respiratory function and resume normal lifestyle.

Throughout the therapy sessions, a patient’s heart rate, oxygen saturation and blood pressure are carefully monitored and that data is used to maintain a safe and effective recovery program.

Evaluation includes assessment of strength, flexibility, respiratory muscle function, and activity tolerance, using a Rate of Perceived Exertion scale.  Standardized functional tests are performed while monitoring vital signs.

The program may include core, upper body and lower body strengthening exercises, a cardiovascular conditioning program, and stretching as indicated. Initially these sessions in the clinic may not be long, based on patient activity tolerance.  The patient’s vital signs are monitored, and exercise is performed within target heart rates, while monitoring oxygen saturation levels.

It is important to string together frequent, short bouts of exercise early on to improve activity tolerance, which means the patient needs to be doing these activities multiple times per day. Patients will be provided with a home exercise program and a pulse oximeter for home use, and instructed how to safely monitor their own response to the exercises. As the patient grows stronger, the intensity  and duration of exercise increases, for both strengthening and endurance.  Supervised exercise time will increase.

If a patient is looking to return to work and is able to perform activities of daily living fairly well, they can be transitioned to a Work Reconditioning Program tailored to their needs, with input from their employer.  At this point they will spend several hours in the clinic performing a variety of work simulation tasks, strengthening exercises, and cardiovascular activities.

The Post COVID-19 Recovery Program can be started in the home via TeleRehab and moved into the clinic at the appropriate time for more advanced activities. A patient’s therapy will be monitored closely in the home setting, via pulse oximeter device, and measured by a Physical Therapist. Our staff is fully qualified to anticipate potential over-stressing situations and will make adjustments to therapy during these monitored sessions to yield the best results for each patient.

To make an appointment: To qualify for Team Rehab’s Post Covid Recovery Program, you’ll need a referral from a Physician, Case Manager or Adjustor. If you are interested in speaking with a member of Team Rehab on how you can begin therapy, please request an appointment online. Your request will be directed to a clinic near your location and a representative from the clinic will contact you.
