Virtual Peer Support Network
Feeling stressed, sad or anxious because of work? Talking to someone who understands can help.
The free Virtual Peer Support Network connects colleagues in the Massachusetts medical community with peers who are trained to help with the difficult feelings that can accompany working on the front line of health care.
When you reach out to the network, you will be matched with a colleague in a similar role outside of your organization. These peer supporters are trained volunteers who provide encouragement, support, and resources to colleagues. All conversations are confidential.
To get started, call 617−701−8101 or contact us for support.
Peer supporters work in a variety of health care roles
Our trained volunteers include physicians, nurses, advanced practice providers, pharmacists, administrative staff and more. Pictured are some of our peer supporters for 2024.
