The new M Health Fairview Adult Post-COVID Clinic, part of the University of Minnesota Medical School Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, launched in December 2020 to respond to the unique recovery needs of COVID survivors. The Clinic intends to treat post-COVID patients who have either been hospitalized and are 3-4 weeks post-hospital discharge, or have not been hospitalized but exhibit ongoing functional deficits.
The Post-COVID Clinic will provide each patient with a virtual health assessment to identify predominant symptoms and rehabilitation needs in order to make an individualized treatment plan and refer the patient to the appropriate specialists. Featured specialties include physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, pulmonary rehab, cardiac rehab, neuropsychology, and behavioral health.
