Course Overview

This course is designed for rehabilitation professionals who care for patients hospitalized with COVID-19 and recovering from critical illness. The content is appropriate for clinicians with intermediate to advanced practice experience in acute care and cardiopulmonary rehabilitation. It provides an evidence-based overview of COVID-19 pathophysiology, acute decompensation, and post-intensive care syndrome (PICS), while highlighting practical strategies for rehabilitation from the ICU to the home. Through a case-based lens, participants will explore interdisciplinary care planning, early mobilization techniques, management of oxygenation challenges, and discharge considerations across the continuum. Special attention is given to addressing social determinants of health, caregiver involvement, and long-term recovery needs in COVID-19 survivors.
