NHS Forth Valley Long Covid Service

The Long Covid service offers advice on managing and improving the symptoms of the condition for young people aged 16 and over and adults who have been diagnosed by their GP as having long Covid.

It provides a wide range of practical and professional advice and support to help people manage symptoms, increase quality of life and improve overall health and wellbeing. This includes information and advice and referral to existing services and support.

People with more severe symptoms which are not improving following initial self-management support can also access more targeted, specialist support by attending a group programme or more focused 1:1 sessions.

People can be referred to the Forth Valley long Covid service by a range of healthcare professionals (such as a GP, physiotherapist or occupational therapist). Once referred, patients are asked to complete some questionnaires to help staff understand symptoms and experience so they can tailor the programme to meet individual needs.
