An amputation is more than a surgical procedure. It is a fundamental change in a person's life and their identity. Along with the physical challenges following an amputation, there are often mental and emotional challenges that may not be properly addressed. Katherine Joseph of the American Trauma Society talks with us about the importance of mental health, peer mentorship, and the many resources available to clinicians, patients, and their families.
