evaluation of the impact of rehabilitation training on the knowledge and attitude of caregivers of covid-19 patients in iran

Applying rehabilitative measures is shown to be influential in relieving the medical complications of the covid-19 disease. herein, we aimed to assess the effect of a rehabilitation training class on the knowledge and attitude of the caregivers of the covid-19 patients. twenty-three caregivers voluntarily filled the questionnaire before and after attending a training class that evaluated the participants' beliefs about the four types of rehabilitations in covid-19, including musculoskeletal, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and deep vein thrombosis (dvt) prevention. significant improvement in the caregiver's attitude about the importance of all four rehabilitation types was detected. also, the knowledge was increased about the necessity of dvt prevention. the level of knowledge in the caregivers of covid-19 patients in iran is not satisfactory, which necessitates proper education to achieve the rehabilitation goals rapidly. in-person caregiver training along with presenting pamphlets is of the most useful methods.
