Abstract

The purpose of this proposal is to develop a collection of guidebooks for fighting and coping with COVID-19. 5 booklets will be developed, 3 aimed at the general population and 2 for occupational therapy professionals. The first three will seek to provide guidance on illness, distance and social isolation, reorganization of routine and daily life in this new context and basic hygiene and disinfection care. The 2 booklets focused on occupational therapists will provide guidance on the role of this professional since screening, hospitalization and discharge process. All materials will be made available online, in e-book format, as printed. They will be based on scientific evidence and will have simple illustrations and writing for everyone to understand.
