Peer to Peer ProgramsPeer Supporters are your colleagues who are trained and can confidentially reach out and provide support as someone who has “been there” to combat the stress associated with those events or patient situations. Confidential, personal outreach and support to providers involved in a significant or adverse event without fear of disclosure. These programs are set-up by our two regional medical centers/systems and modeled after a successful Brigham Womens Hospital program.
