PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder: Coronavirus (7 July 2020)

Emerging evidence suggests that some people recovering from the COVID-19 virus are likely to experience significant ongoing health problems, including mental health problems such as post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety and depression.

NHS England and NHS Improvement have worked with the University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust to develop a digital, interactive, personalised recovery programme. The new ‘Your COVID Recovery’ service, which was announced on 5 July, forms part of National Health Service plans to expand access to COVID-19 rehabilitation treatments for those who have survived the virus but still have problems with mental health problems, breathing or other complications.
