Requests from Hospitals
Possibilities for consideration with local hospital staff:
- Artwork for waiting rooms and patient rooms
- Clothing for premature babies
- sock doll for mothers to take home to sleep with, attaching their scent to the doll which is then placed with the babies
- hats help to retain body heat, relieving stress on the baby’s circulatory system
- booties and clothing help call attention away from hospital machines bringing psychological comfort to parents
- blankets
- Bereavement
- memory boxes: hand and foot prints, necklaces for mothers with matching bracelets for the baby
- knit outfits so families can take a photo and have a remembrance
- Chemo hats because it’s freezing cold in cancer treatment facilities
