We are here to help
Trauma is an unexpected occurrence. Hardly anyone thinks, “I’m going to get hurt today.” A sudden injury, being in the hospital and going through recovery can cause anxiety, fear and frustration. You may feel confused and frightened by some things you hear and see. You may not understand some words that people use. You may have many questions along the way. We are here to help.
We hope to provide information to help you better cope during this difficult time. For more information, please download and read our Handbook for Trauma Patients and their Families (PDF).
