Sometimes, during medical treatments, things don’t go as planned. This could be because of a medical error, unanticipated outcome or a known complication.
Did you know that there is a Patient and Family Peer Support Network to help people cope with the difficult feelings that arise after this kind of experience? As the name suggests, the network connects patients or their loved ones with trained volunteers right here in Massachusetts who provide encouragement, support and resources to others who have a similar experience.
