Support Groups

At Samaritan Regional Health System, we understand the life-altering impact a diagnosis can bring to both our patients and their families. That's why we encourage you to attend support groups, knowing education will lead to an understanding of your condition, which will, in turn, lead to a healthy lifestyle.
