The impact of long COVID on patients goes beyond physical symptoms. In this episode, Kaethe Weingarten, Ph.D. (she/her), Director of the Witness to Witness (W2W) Program for MCN, will discuss the impacts of long COVID which have been shown to affect patients, their families, and caregivers psychologically and relationally. The discussion will include ways for clinicians serving immigrants, migrants, and patients from other under-resourced communities to better understand the challenges patients and their families may face before, during, and after a long COVID diagnosis, and ways to assist them through the process of coping with illness.
