Mission Statement
The Wishbone Foundation mission is to provide training and resources for nurses and their bereavement teams who support grieving families experiencing miscarriage, stillborn, or early infant death.
Description
The Wishbone Foundation fills an underserved need of equipping health care providers with skills to effectively handle devastating situations when families experience pregnancy loss, stillbirth, and early infant death. Building elite health care teams includes working through specific cases in small round table discussions, interacting with families on the parent panel who have experienced loss, and implementing selfcare
practices to help decrease burnout. Improving competence, confidence, compassion, and balance allows health care providers to continually offer the best care possible to families during the worst times in their lives.
