Ninety-four per cent of the Covid-19 patients were discharged to home health care, and achieved statistically significant improvements in symptom burden and functional outcomes, and 87 per cent had no adverse events, suggests a new study.

The study was conducted by the researchers of the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing (Penn Nursing). The study, published in the Annals of Internal Medicine states no data has been available on the outcomes of Covid-19 patients discharged home after hospitalisation and their recovery needs.
