Brief Summary  

With the ongoing COVID 19 pandemic a large number of patients are hospitalized with the need for supplemental O2. Awake proning has been shown to improve outcomes in patients. However patients find it difficult to comply especially as they do not have their family members with them. This study is being done to test the utility of education, reinforcement and trackers on the patient’s compliance to proning and in turn the effect on outcomes.
