About this conference

During the COVID-19 pandemic, care standards in rehabilitation facilities were challenged, particularly for patients with COVID-19. A pan-provincial research team analyzed the impact on care quality at these facilities, using data from 1000 medical files and consulting with patients, therapists, and managers.

The results showed the agility of health establishments in adapting their care structure and processes. All patients, including those with COVID-19, saw functional progress. However, clinical practices in assessment and intervention were affected, and all patients suffered from social and physical isolation. The study suggests potential solutions for future crisis situations, based on stakeholders’ experiential knowledge.
