Long COVID has emerged as one of the most complex and rapidly evolving chronic health conditions following the COVID-19 pandemic and can affect much more than a person's physical health. It can impact cognition, emotional well-being, daily activities, employment, and quality of life.
Our newest course, Long COVID: Rehabilitation Counseling, Functional Impact, and Vocational Support, provides rehabilitation professionals with an overview of Long COVID and practical strategies for supporting the individuals they serve.
Learners will be able to:
-
Examine common symptom clusters associated with Long COVID and their functional impact.
-
Explore interdisciplinary rehabilitation and symptom-management strategies.
-
Develop skills in functional assessment, accommodation planning, and workplace advocacy.
-
Explain how Long COVID may qualify as a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
-
Identify reliable resources and self-advocacy strategies to support long-term client success.
-
Recognize the importance of cultural humility, ethical practice, and ongoing professional learning in an evolving healthcare landscape.
Through case scenarios and applied learning activities, rehabilitation professionals will strengthen their ability to translate the evolving understanding of Long COVID into practical, client-centered rehabilitation services.
