COVID-19 has created unprecedented stress across all sectors, including healthcare. However, we have seen some success points during this long and ongoing battle. Early in the pandemic itself we were able to diagnose the disease, knew preventive tactics using face mask, hand hygiene and physical distance. We could also make vaccines available in the shortest time in the history of vaccines. Many shortcomings were evident too. Definitive treatment approaches are yet to get consensus from medical community, faith in efficacy and safety of vaccination, timing of relaxing COVID norms are a few that fall into diverse opinions. While all these issues are staged around COVID, one critical point that still awaits definitive answer is the concrete approach on managing non COVID services across health care spectrum. One such pivotal area is continuing Rehabilitation Care during and beyond COVID times. This applies to every condition that can benefit from rehabilitation. Specialities like Neurology and Neurosurgery need particular attention as these diseases impact all aspects of society if not handled well.
