 In the fields of medicine and public health management, navigation and peer visitation programs consider patients as are their own important resources, who should be actively involved in the health care organization and throughout the process of care delivery and rehabilitation. The importance of promoting a more active role of patients in the management of their own health care is recognized by health care experts, managers, and policy makers. Programs that engage patients in their own health care are reported as an important strategy to improve adherence, outcomes, satisfaction toward the health care provider, and reduction of health care costs. The emotional adjustment to an amputation is sometimes the most challenging part. Peer visitation allows the patient to speak directly with another amputee who has shared a similar experience, allowing them to relate feelings and concerns about the loss of a limb to someone who has already endured the process and lives with the condition daily.
