Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 21, Issue 2
Abstract
The study is a collection of lessons learned from people who have personally dealt with COVID-19, particularly the so-called mild-to-moderate cases that resolved themselves when they were left alone. Experiences of people following a clinical COVID-19 diagnosis and self- care treatments is closely tied to Self-Care Nursing Theory which focuses on a person's capacity for self-care. Qualitative methodology is utilized to understand the irrational sensations, conceptions, and beliefs of the Covid-19 survivors. Striving to completely appreciated the phenomenon by discussing the individuals' lived experiences. Questionnaire- guided interview study of 10 people aged 18 and up who lived in Tarlac City and had positive COVID-19 or antibody tests were chosen using purposive sampling. People more likely to get COVID-19 from members of their own home or family, according to the study. The respondents also recounted a wide spectrum of symptoms that they encountered during their sickness. Most study participants believed that recovery time was longer than the commonly accepted two-week period, which is a significant finding. According to the findings of this study, a four-week recuperation period is normally required. 60% of participants reported being subjected to COVID-19 stigma, such as avoidance by others after they had recovered and downplaying of their sickness or COVID-19 experience by others. Individuals then recounted their COVID-19 experiences to inform and motivate the public, particularly those who have not yet infected the coronavirus. According to the findings of this study, the road to rehabilitation for self-care patients in isolation may be challenging and slow for certain people. As a result, it is recommended that a policy be established to promote and encourage the establishment of an intervention program that supports and encourages holistic rehabilitation and will take care of the patients' physical and psychological well-being as they advance through the self-care phase of their recovery.
