Trauma Survivors Network
The Trauma Survivors Network (TSN) is a national community of patients and families looking to connect with one another after a serious traumatic injury. Joining this community can help ease the anxiety and frustration often experienced following a sudden injury and the resulting hospitalization, by connecting you with other trauma survivors and families who face the same unique challenges.
The UVM Medical Center, in partnership with the American Trauma Society (ATS), is committed to supporting and growing the TSN locally by providing the tools trauma patients and families need to navigate the road to recovery and to help improve and rebuild their lives.
Become a Member of the UVM Medical Center Trauma Survivor’s Network.
Support Group
The UVM Medical Center virtual Facebook support group for Trauma Survivors is a place for you to connect and share your experience with other survivors. The group is private and moderated by TSN staff and members.
