Northwestern Memorial HealthCare Support Group Participation As a group participant, I hereby consent to participation in a Northwestern Memorial HealthCare (“NMHC”) support group. NMHC will provide monthly Group sessions at no cost to Participants. The Group facilitator is currently designated as Erin Cecchi, LCSW. Group facilitator may change depending on availability. Groups are subject to have co-facilitators and guest speakers. I understand that these group sessions are for social support only and that none of the information I disclose will be shared with my healthcare providers for healthcare treatment purposes. I further understand that, in the event that I require medical attention, it is my responsibility to directly contact my physician’s office (or, in the event that I need immediate medical assistance, to call 911). I understand the group facilitator will instruct other participants to keep information shared by other participants confidential; however, I understand that other participants may not keep my information confidential. I further understand that in the event that group facilitator is concerned that I may engage in self harm or cause harm to others, group facilitator may be obligated to disclose this information to appropriate authorities. I understand that participation in group sessions is voluntary, and I hereby consent to my participation in the group sessions. I acknowledge and agree that my participation in the group sessions may involve some risk of injury or reputational harm and that I have read and agreed to the “Rules of the Road” for participation that are included below.
