Home Nursing Healing Patch

Home Nursing Agency’s Healing Patch is a peer support program designed specifically for children and their families who have suffered the loss of a loved one, such as a parent, sibling, grandparent, or close family member. The Healing Patch offers a safe environment where grieving children and their families can discover they are not alone in their grief by interacting with others who have encountered similar losses. By sharing memories and experiences, families discover that what they are going through is normal and that hope and healing are possible. There are approx. 30 volunteers that make the bears/pillows and each child that enrolls in the program can have a memory bear or pillow typically made out of the clothing of the loved one that died.
