The Wishbone Foundation is filling a need that has gone under-served. There are several establishments providing support for families after they leave the hospital, but there is not an organization currently dedicated to providing the training and support for the labor and delivery teams at no cost to them.
Wishbone 2.0 Bereavement Training
The training will incorporate educating parents on grief, how to handle the unknown, and comprehensive skills to build your bereavement teams. We strive for every attendee to walk away with confidence and new skills to support grieving families.
