Calling all rehabilitation professionals: What has it been like to work during the COVID-19 pandemic?

28 September 2023
News release
Reading time:

The WHO Regional Office for Europe is conducting an anonymous 15-minute survey for rehabilitation professionals working in 5 countries (Armenia, Georgia, Italy, Poland and the United Kingdom) on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the rehabilitation workforce and on service delivery.  

The survey has 3 main purposes:

  • to document experiences, recognizing the unique contributions of rehabilitation professionals during this exceptionally difficult period;
  • to give rehabilitation professionals working in different roles and with varying levels of responsibility the opportunity to voice their opinions and shape policy; and
  • to inform future emergency responses so that health systems and rehabilitation services in particular can be better prepared.

WHO/Europe would appreciate as many responses as possible by 31 October. Please feel free to share the survey relevant to your country with your rehabilitation colleagues.
