MESOTHELIOMA

  • Why is Mesothelioma Prominent in Seniors?

    • Public Outreach Department for the Mesothelioma Center (Asbestos.com) is an advocacy group that works to spread awareness of asbestos-related diseases and help those currently suffering from them.

    • Here are some things we offer seniors that set us apart from other advocacy sites:

      • A monthly online support group where we discuss a variety of topics pertaining to seniors and their caregivers.

      • An on-staff doctor and nurse available to answer any medical-related questions that seniors may have.

      • 24-hour live chat support.

      • Patient Advocates that work 1-on-1 with seniors to help them find local doctors, treatment centers and support groups.

    • Please take a look at some of the great information we have at //asbestos.com/mesothelioma/
