For CHD families who are inpatient, we are dedicated to providing comfort items for the patient. We understand the desire to make a hospital room feel more like home. We know these cozy items make your child feel comfort and can provide a sense of calm during a scary time. Our hope is to lessen the sterile feel of a hospital.
