There are different treatment options, but they are not recommended or suitable for all those affected. For this reason and due to the lack of health treatment, many of these patients have tried to carry out their own rehabilitation through the use of community resources. Objective: The objective of this study is to deepen into the understanding about the use of community resources as assets for health and rehabilitation by people with Long COVID and their utility. Methodology: A qualitative design was carried out with the participation of 35 Long COVID patients, of which 17 subjects were interviewed individually and 18 of them were part of two focus groups. The participating patients were recruited in November and December 2021 from the Primary Health Care centers and through the Association of Long COVID patients of Aragon. The research topics were the use of community resources, before and after their infection by COVID-19, rehabilitation through their use, as well as barriers and strengths for their employment. All analyses were performed iteratively using NVivo software. Results: Long COVID patients who have used community resources for rehabilitation have seen an improvement in their physical and mental health. Most of them, specifically those affected, have used green spaces, public facilities, physical or cultural activities and associations. The main barriers identified have been the symptoms themselves and the fear of reinfection, with the main advantage of these activities being the perceived health benefits. Conclusion: The use of community resources seems to be beneficial in the recovery process of Long COVID patients, so it is necessary to continue delving into this topic and promote the formal use of the Recommendation of Health Assets from Primary healthcare. 000126968 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/B21-20R-GAIAP$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/ISCIII-RICAPPS/RD21-0016-0005 000126968 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000126968 590__ $$a3.2$$b2023 000126968 592__ $$a0.967$$b2023 000126968 591__ $$aPUBLIC, ENVIRONMENTAL & OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH$$b105 / 408 = 0.257$$c2023$$dQ2$$eT1 000126968 593__ $$aPublic Health, Environmental and Occupational Health$$c2023$$dQ1 000126968 591__ $$aPUBLIC, ENVIRONMENTAL & OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH$$b105 / 408 = 0.257$$c2023$$dQ2$$eT1 000126968 594__ $$a4.8$$b2023 000126968 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000126968 700__ $$aFormento-Marín, Natalia$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000126968 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-6565-9699$$aOliván-Blázquez, Bárbara$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000126968 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-1200-5904$$aLeón-Herrera, Sandra$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000126968 700__ $$aBenedé-Azagra, Belén$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000126968 7102_ $$11006$$2255$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
