The world's poorest children are at highest risk of the world's most expensive injuries -- burns and amputations. These sudden, life-changing trauma injuries can happen in a second without warning but require a lifetime of support. The world has ample resources in the form of medical care, rehabilitation therapy, and psychosocial support for trauma survivors, but it is not getting to the children who need it most. HandReach is working to bring together the best hands in the world to promote healing, rehabilitation, and the full development of human potential among the world's poorest and most badly-injured children. HandReach works at three levels: 1) Individuals: We facilitate the sharing of best practices across countries and institutions by educating clinicians, therapists, parents, and healers of all kinds. We also work to bring acute, reconstructive, and psychosocial care to children who are in great need of surgery or rehabilitation therapy that their families cannot possibly afford. 2) Institutions: We facilitate international clinics, sponsor training, develop technological resources, and arrange for the donation of needed equipment and supplies so that institutions can maximize their ability to treat complex injuries and promote full rehabilitation for children, regardless of income. 3) Society: We advocate for the needs of the poor to promote greater access to medical care, education, safer products, building materials, and work practices, and a place in society that includes greater access and acceptance for people with physical differences. We are working to develop a free international database of best practices in pediatric burn care and orthopedic rehabilitation that allows doctors and therapists to consult across the world on cases. This online resource database will be readily translatable into any language and provide short, detailed videos that address various aspects of excellent burn and orthopedic care -- from skin grafting to splinting to prosthetics to psychological support for children and families. If a child is burned in China, for instance, her doctor can provide details about the case, consult live expert clinicians internationally, and be directed to easily downloadable videos in Chinese to share with staff and the patient's family. HandReach's work would then be to spread the word of this database and foster face-to-face contact between clinics worldwide. HandReach's dream is for there to be nowhere in the world a child can be injured that is out of reach of excellent medical care and psychosocial support.
The mission of Seasons Hospice is to provide individualized and compassionate care, education, and support for the dying and those who have experienced loss. Adding quality of life to each day is the vision of Seasons Hospice. We provide our patients with compassionate care to help ensure that the final months and days are filled with comfort and peace for the patient and their loved ones. Seasons Hospice is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization that was founded in 1996 as a homecare-based hospice program. In 1997, we added residential hospice care to our services with the acquisition of our lovely Hospice House. Today we offer homecare, residential, and facility-based hospice care to meet the needs of our patients wherever they call home. Seasons Hospice also offers the only free-standing grief center in SE Minnesota. Our grief services are available to anyone in the community. The Seasons Hospice House, located on 13 acres in Rochester, Minnesota, provides 24-hour onsite hospice care. This lovely, eight-bedroom facility, which opened in 1997, was the first Medicare-certified residential hospice facility in Minnesota. Seasons Hospice recognizes the importance of providing grief support to those who have suffered a loss. We offer extensive bereavement support through our Center for Grief Education and Support (CGES) to all individuals who have experienced a loss. These services are provided free of charge.
