Episode 10 - Has Covid Changed Our Care?

Has the Covid pandemic impacted the care we receive for our arthritis or chronic illness?

In this 'round table' chat, full of insight, lived experience and heartbreak, we discuss the experiences of Jacyln, Safia and Ashleigh to understand how their 'normal' care has changed over the last two years.

From lifelong conditions to the recently diagnosed, we take a sample of stories from across the country to get a snapshot of how treatments and appointments may have been impacted, what shielding was like and how Covid-19 has changed the perception of chronic illness and disability.

You can also contribute to this episode by completing a survey HERE to share your experiences during the pandemic. As discussed in the show, we will be using this data to start honest conversations with decision-makers, so your voice makes a difference!
