Full description
This qualitative study will involve participants taking photographs (during their usual day-to-day activities), followed by 1:1 semi-structured interviews. Participants will be adults living with multiple pre-existing long-term conditions (LTC) and long COVID or their carers/supporters.
Stage 1: Photographs Participants will be asked to take photographs of things they feel represent or symbolise the impact of long COVID on their day-to-day lives across seven days in advance of the interview.
Stage 2: Interviews Semi-structured 1:1 interviews will be held face-to-face, online or telephone (in accordance with participant preference to optimise inclusivity). The iterative interview topic guide will continue to be informed by patient and public involvement and engagement, evidence (including preceding projects of the PhD), and the participants' photographs. Photographs will be viewed during the interview with participants.
The findings of this qualitative study will be used to inform the adaptation of exercise-based rehabilitation programmes to improve health and well-being which meets the needs of individuals living with multiple pre-existing LTC and long COVID.
