Medically Induced Trauma Support Services (MITSS), Inc. is a non-profit organization founded in June of 2002 whose mission is To Support Healing and Restore Hope to patients, families, and clinicians who have been affected by an adverse medical event.
Medically induced trauma is an unexpected outcome that occurs during medical and/or surgical care that affects the emotional well being of the patient, family member, or clinician.
Our purpose is to create awareness, promote open and honest communication, and to provide services to patients, families, and clinicians affected by medically induced trauma.
Our vision is for all those involved in a medically induced trauma to have access to support services. We envision a more compassionate, patient-centered healthcare system.
