Wellesley Institute is looking for interview participants who are caring for someone with ongoing symptoms from COVID-19 to hear about their experiences
To participate, you must:
- Be a family or friend who is caring for someone with ongoing symptoms from COVID-19 that last 3 months or longer
- Be 18 years of age or older
- Live in the Greater Toronto Area (Halton, Peel, York, City of Toronto, Durham)
We want to learn about the impact of ongoing symptoms from COVID-19 on the lives and well-being of people in the Greater Toronto Area, and their families, friends or loved ones. We are hoping that the research will improve understanding of what kinds of supports would benefit people with Long COVID.
The phone/Zoom interview will take 60 minutes and you will receive a $35 gift card for participating. You will have the option of a President’s Choice, Shoppers Drug Mart, Walmart, Winners or Amazon gift card.
