Our state currently has one of the highest rates of public vaccination in the nation. This is a hopeful sign of progress that moves us closer to the goal of returning to pre-pandemic life. At Scerbo Physical Therapy and Sports Rehabilitation, we hope that all our patients are or will soon be fully vaccinated to protect themselves and others from Covid-19 infection.
Here at our Edgewater facility, we continue to exercise prudent measures to help our patients and staff remain Covid-free.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”4px”][vc_column_text]
Physical therapists across the country are now seeing patients who have actually recovered from the Covid-19 and are engaging them in rehabilitation programs as part of their COVID recovery. The Covid-19 treatment is by no means simple and contains layers of recovery that can last a far longer period than other illnesses.
At Scerbo Physical Therapy & Sports Rehabilitation we can help you avoid these problems by following preventative measures that encourage patients to maintain good physical activity and healthy lifestyles.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”4px”][vc_toggle title=”Treatment Process”]Once patients recover from COVID symptoms, their journey is not over. They may still require additional treatment in order to get back to normal after their initial recovery. A percentage of patients require hospitalization, meaning bed rest is necessary in order for them to recover. Although this is necessary, it can lead to complications of the musculoskeletal system including strength loss, atrophy, and contracture.[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Challenges Post-COVID-19″]Depending on the severity of the illness, patients will benefit from a variety of activities and exercise-based rehabilitation. Patients who have been in the ICU due to COVID may experience post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) which involves health problems from the ICU stay that may persist after the patient leaves the hospital. These problems can involve general body weakness, cognitive or brain dysfunction, and mental health conditions.[/vc_toggle][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_separator][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_column_text]

You will also need a good internet connection that allows you to stream video.[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”My physical therapist recommends a virtual check-in. How does a virtual visit differ from telephone services?”]Both telephone services and virtual check-ins can be done using a telephone, although a virtual check-in may also include the use of audio-video applications, secure text messaging, email, or a portal. Your PT may perform a virtual check-in by contacting you. Telephone services must be initiated by you or your caregiver reaching out to the PT. In both cases, these services allow you to maintain contact with your PT, seek advice, and receive recommendations and support in your rehabilitative efforts or care of a loved one.[/vc_toggle][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_separator][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][vc_column_text]
