How young people experienced long covid services: a qualitative analysis
Our results stress the importance to CYP of several features of the care received in the specialist clinics. These relate to the experiences of CYP with long covid but potentially extend to CYP with other conditions, particularly long-term and/or poorly understood conditions. The results support creating community-based support groups for CYP with long-term medical conditions, providing online flexible appointments, offering early reasonable adjustments for school and providing quicker access to specialist clinics.
