Thank you for supporting palliative care for children and families dealing with pain and other challenges from illness or treatment. Our work is simple: Give kids the best days possible even as they cope with severe and potentially life-limiting diseases like cancer, neurological conditions, and heart, lung, kidney, and liver disease.
Our doctors, nurses, therapists, psychologists, social workers and others shape services to each child’s needs. Together, we provide pain and symptom management, rehabilitation, integrative therapies like healing touch and meditation, creative therapies and pet therapy.
Regretfully — despite countless rigorous studies demonstrating the unique benefits of palliative care — insurance companies do not reimburse hospitals like Nemours Children’s for these highly effective therapies.
For this reason, your gift is incredibly important as it helps grow Nemours Children’s Palliative Care Endowed Fund. You’re helping create a perpetual resource to help families as they experience some of their darkest days and nights. Thank you.
