Supporting the patient and their family

Supporting the patient and their family

Providing Mesothelioma patients, as well as their families, with the information and support they need during their Mesothelioma journey is vital. On this page you will find videos from Sarah Thomas, Benefits Manager at Mesothelioma UK on the compensation and benefit schemes available to Mesothelioma patients, as well as how the coroner is involved in these cases. In addition, listen to Simon Bolton (Mesothelioma UK CNS) and Helena Stanley (Mesothelioma/Lung cancer nurse specialist) talk about how you can support Mesothelioma patients and their family.
