Support after Covid

Courses:

General Self-Management Programme

Our general self-management programme runs over 6 weeks with each weekly session lasting 2.5 hours. This programme is designed for anyone who has a long-term health condition of any kind, whether it be physical or mental health condition.  It is also valuable for those who are caring for someone with a long-term health condition, as it can also offer support for the carer's own health and wellbeing.  There are a wide range of topics covered, which include;

  • Managing symptoms like pain and fatigue to improve how you feel
  • Setting weekly realistic goals using Action Plans
  • Problem solving and decision making skills
  • Relaxation and distraction techniques
  • Managing the difficult emotions that almost everyone experiences when living with a long-term health condition

If your wellbeing and independence has been impacted by Post Covid syndrome in non-clinical ways, you may benefit from 1 to 1 support from one of our Social Prescribing Link Workers.

A Social Prescribing Link Worker will discuss with you, areas of your life that you wish to focus on improving. Working alongside you, they will help you to create a personalised action plan and support you to set your own health and wellbeing goals.
