Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in increased mental health concerns. The rehabilitation context provides an opportunity for psychologists to preventatively assess and address these concerns. This retrospective study demonstrated significant psychological distress and cognitive impairments among COVID-19 survivors in acute rehabilitation. Implications for COVID-19 recovery within this setting are discussed.
