Are you dealing with “Long COVID” or have a loved one who is?
Join Beaufort Memorial for a monthly support group open to anyone who has suffered or is suffering from Long Covid, as well as family members or caregivers who would like to support someone who is dealing with Long Covid.
“People with Long Covid can experience a variety of symptoms — general fatigue, shortness of breath, decreased blood oxygen levels, balance issues, and cognitive deficits or brain fog,” said Megan Mack, Director of Beaufort Memorial Rehabilitation Services. “The group setting will provide an opportunity for participants to discuss their personal recovery process and foster an environment and network of support.”
In addition, Beaufort Memorial staff and community partners will share information about Long Covid, provide practical guidance for addressing common symptoms, and offer information about local resources.
The first meeting will be held on Thursday, January 26 from noon to 1 p.m. at Beaufort Memorial LifeFit Wellness Center, 990 Ribaut Road in Beaufort, directly across the street from the hospital. Future meetings will be held the final Thursday of every month. There is no charge to participate but registration in requested. Visit BeaufortMemorial.org/LongCovidSupport for information and to register.
