A pilot study was completed to examine the effectiveness of OT in helping individuals regain independence in activities of daily living after COVID-19. In a retrospective chart review, statistically significant results (p < .05) on the Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Patient Assessment Instrument and the Modified Barthel Index demonstrated that OT is effective in the rehabilitation setting to increase individuals' independence following a COVID-19 diagnosis.
