Study for COVID survivors and their unpaid carepartners in South Carolina
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how to improve health and support for African American adults who had COVID-19 severe enough to need urgent care or hospitalization, along with the unpaid carepartner who helps them at home. It may be helpful if you and your carepartner live in a medically underserved or rural area and share daily support needs.
