Importantly, MADDA provides a specialist, nurse-led support service for individuals and families affected by mesothelioma and other dust diseases. This model delivers not only practical care coordination and system navigation, but also vital psychosocial support. Individuals facing a mesothelioma diagnosis, and their family, often experience significant psychological distress, anxiety, and uncertainty alongside their physical illness. MADDA’s ongoing engagement with patients helps address these mental and emotional impacts, supporting wellbeing, dignity, and quality of life throughout the course of the disease.
