The new ‘Your COVID Recovery’ service, forms part of National Health Service plans to expand access to COVID-19 rehabilitation treatments for those who have survived the virus but still have problems with breathing, mental health problems or other complications.

Phase one is already live at the following link:

https://www.yourcovidrecovery.nhs.uk/

Phase two, where people who need it will be able to access personalised support packages, is expected to launch later this summer.

The online portal will help ensure that people get the support they need to recover from the effects of the virus. Where patients do not already have access to a suitable device to use the online platform, printed materials will be made depending upon demand to ensure the service is accessible to all.
