Healing Hearts Hospice/Miscarage Support Group
Healing Hearts Hospice is a pregnancy/infant loss program of the Crisis Pregnancy Centers of Tucson. Hospice care provides a different kind of hope; hope of time with your baby, hope of collecting memories and keepsakes to validate your baby’s life, hope of uncomplicated grief by being prepared. The best care we can give you is not to protect you from pain but to support you though it.
Finding out during your pregnancy that your baby has a life-limiting condition may overwhelm you with strong feelings and many questions. You are faced with heart breaking decisions that must be made in a short period of time. Healing Hearts Hospice is designed to support parents of an unborn baby diagnosed with a fatal birth defect.
We would like to join you on this difficult journey and provide support and guidance as you plan for the rest of your pregnancy, delivery and, when necessary, saying good-bye. We will work alongside your care provider and the hospital where you will deliver.
Services offered include:
- Prenatal education
- Birth plan development
- Emotional and spiritual support for you and your family
- Assistance with preparing other children in the family
- Labor support
- Community referrals (as needed)
- Monthly visits (more often if needed)
