THE GREATEST NEED FUND
Annual gifts to the Greatest Need Fund allow us to do what we do best ~ provide a high standard of service and care to our community. Support to this fund allows us to offer a comprehensive range of services that include those that are uncompensated such as the chaplaincy program, volunteer program, and pediatric bereavement programs.
CAMP ERIN GENERAL FUND
A weekend bereavement camp for children ages 6-17. Started by Seattle Mariner Jamie Moyer and his wife Karen, the purpose of this bereavement camp is to improve the quality of life for children who have experienced a loss. Camp Erin is designed to gently teach coping skills and help build self-esteem and trust, while providing a relaxed, safe, healing environment for children to share their grief.
CAMP ERIN ENDOWMENT FUND
Maintaining a high standard of service for grieving children is a priority. The Camp Erin Endowment Fund will enable the camp to operate into perpetuity. Your donations expand the potential for the future of Camp Erin by ensuring the future funding needed to operate this community service.
CAROUSEL FUND: Pediatric Hospice, Bereavement, and Home Health Care Services
Your support of this pediatric program is making a difference in the lives of many children within our community. Our Carousel Team strives to provide comprehensive and compassionate care to children needing home health, palliative, hospice, or bereavement care. Also, this fund supports two specialized pediatric bereavement services following the death of a loved one ~ the School Crisis Team and Standing Together
HOME CARE FUND
Love, patience, understanding, and the familiar surroundings of family and friends, along with Providence Home Care's support services, help many patients recover faster. We provide a full range of nursing services; physical, occupational and speech therapies; home health aides who assist with personal care; medical social workers; chaplains who counsel people of all faiths; and volunteer services. Chaplain care is un-reimbursed by Medicare and private insurance companies. This fund helps to cover the growing costs for this high-level of patient care.
HOSPICE FUND
Hospice affirms life, yet recognizes that dying is a normal part of life. Hospice exists to provide support and care for persons in the last phases of life so that they may live as fully and comfortably as possible. Funds are used for patient visits, equipment, supplies, medications, bereavement, respite care, palliative care, chaplaincy support, and charity care.
LIBRARY/EDUCATION FUND
A lending library offering a variety of learning materials, videos, and books about loss, grief, adult and childhood illness, death and dying, child bereavement, and caregiver training.
LIFELINE FUND
Staying in your own home with dignity, peace of mind, and independence is the goal of the Providence Lifeline program, an emergency response service provided in Snohomish County and Camano Island. Lifeline provides 24-hour per day, 7-days per week monitoring with a piece of electronic equipment that is installed in the home. By simply pushing a "help needed" button, notification is sent that assistance is needed by the subscriber. Capital equipment is needed.
PALLIATIVE CARE FUND
The Partners in Palliative Care program provides “bridge” services and support for end-of-life patients and their families. The approach is innovative and simple, Hospice to reach out to families and caregivers of specific clinic patients identified with a life threatening or terminal illness 1-2 years prior to end of life to provide education, resources, and direction.
