Lancaster General Health has established their multidisciplinary Post-COVID-19 Recovery and Rehabilitation Therapy program to treat patients experiencing post-COVID-19 issues in a coordinated manner.

For patients identified with high complexity, complications or impaired progress, the team will recommend referral to a physiatry specialist for medical oversight including collaboration and referrals to cardiology or pulmonology services as needed. A rehab case manager can be assigned as a personal navigator for patients as required.

Patients are eligible for treatment if they have recovered from COVID-19 and are experiencing lingering health issues including:

  1. Weakness

  3. Pain

  4. Difficulty performing usual activities
