POST COVID SWIM

Post Covid Swim - Postcovi Eu logotip - recovering after covid with swimming

ABOUT PROJECT

According to the World Health Organization, COVID-recovered individuals suffer from various problems (breathing, neurological, physical and psychological dysfunctions), preventing them to partly or fully return in the work process, affecting their exclusion and increasing the health expenditure. Nevertheless, in Europe there is no systematic treatment of COVID-recovered people when they finish with medical treatment. The project PostCovSwim addresses this gap by presenting swimming and movement in the water as a physical activity, which improves the quality of life of COVID-recovered individuals. Thanks to the water characteristics, the COVID-recovered people will be able to take part in the program.

PROJECT OBJECTIVE

The main project objective is to draw up a training program, based on the recent world-known developments in the field of health and sport sciences, to be used in a local environment. An innovative design of the program in the appropriately warm water will directly address the current problems connected with COVID-19. By drawing-up their own training programs, the representatives of the target groups (swimming teachers and coaches, swimming professionals and kinesiologists) will be able to reach a higher participation of the final users, faster inclusion in the society, and, at the same time, they will have an important mission in direction of the psychical and mental condition of the society.
