Living and Working with Long COVID
Living and Working with Long COVID
Debra Brucker, Research Professor at the Institute on Disability, is partnering with Vidya Sundar, Associate Professor of Occupational Therapy at UNH, on a five-year research project funded by the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR).
This project, running from 2023 to 2028, focuses on the experiences of people with disabilities who are also living and working with Long COVID. The research explores how Long COVID affects health, daily life, and employment. The team is also testing a new, employee-driven approach, based on job crafting, to help individuals better manage workplace demands and improve their job outcomes.
