Whether
you're overwhelmed with a crisis or looking to
learn about a diagnosis, support groups may help
you cope.
Support
groups provide information - through group discussion,
people can learn about the latest treatments and
techniques. Support groups also teach coping skills
and can provide information and advice to assist
you in the management of symptoms.
A
support group is a place to share common concerns.
People who are dealing with similar experiences
and problems can provide insight, support and
encouragement.
Medcenter One offers several support groups for
patients and families dealing with Alzheimer's
disease, cancer, diabetes, gastric bypass surgery,
hepatitis, infant death, multiple sclerosis, prostate
cancer and stroke and brain injury.
