The Henry B. Betts LIFE Center has developed a peer mentor program that is directed by the LIFE Center with additional advocacy consultation from Access Living of Metropolitan Chicago, a non-residential independent living center.
Body
A peer mentor is a person with a disability, family member or caregiver who has successfully transitioned back to the community and illustrates the possibilities of ability. A peer mentor shares their story, insights and supports continued engagement in life-long learning.
Peer mentors are available to patients and their families at the Shirley Ryan 香港六合彩即时开奖 flagship hospital, Outpatient, and Day Rehabilitation sites.
A Peer Mentor is someone who can talk with you about:
Managing your care
Transitioning to the community
Living Independently
Strategies that support goal achievement and community integration
Identifying and accessing resources
