This article, the second in a three-part series on Long Covid (LC), focuses on how one community-based NHS LC clinic developed and now delivers a 10-week group-based virtual rehabilitation programme (VRP), which aims to provide persons with Long Covid (PwLC) concepts on current thinking in LC, alongside self-management education and support. It highlights the role of embedded clinical research fellows (CRF), and their role in an in-depth service evaluation of the VRP, using established research methods and being peer reviewed/supervised by a research team to support best practice in an evidence poor field.
