Abstract
This article discusses the role of patients and their families as peer support providers to other patients, and as decision makers within organizations. We use as a model the Bayview Support Network, a self-help network at the Toronto-Sunnybrook Regional Cancer Centre. We review the benefits of partnership, costs, limitations and risks. A list of features that contribute to effective partnerships is also provided.
