HUGS Volunteers:
HUGS Volunteers are contacted by clinic and hospital staff when a family is experiencing a loss. They can assist nursing staff by providing companionship for families, answering questions, and assisting nurses with creating keepsakes. |
"The HUGS Program and dedicated volunteers help to ensure every patient and family that is experiencing a loss has the comprehensive and ongoing support that is needed. Our HUGS Volunteers give so much of themselves and help to fill the gap of what the OB Nursing staff cannot fully provide following discharge. |
A worry stone for dad (mom or partner if they prefer.) Because some parents grieve more privately.
|
A book for the family to read to their little one(s). Because this time is precious and short.
|
A bracelet for mom. Generously donated by Hudson's Bands of Hope.
