In honor of National Recovery Month, we want to recognize our incredible Peer Recovery Coaches here at Munson. Each of these special coaches offers a unique type of support for our patients in recovery from alcohol, drugs, and other substances. Not only have these inspiring individuals achieved and maintained their own recovery from substance use disorders – but they bring this lived experience to their roles as Peer Recovery Coaches, serving as close confidants, navigators, advocates, and guides for our patients seeking recovery. Hear from Paige, Madie, and Paul as they share their own personal stories and how they support others seeking help to overcome addiction: https://hubs.li/Q02Rlt1W0
