I became involved with Hasbro after a nurse from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center that we respect dearly moved to Hasbro. Hasbro offers excellent auxiliary programs such as one for sleep disturbances. Likewise, our family foundation played a large part in the creation of their palliative care program. We hope to draw awareness to this exceptional facility and the important work they are doing through his civic engagements and public platform.
My family is driven by their positive experience with the hospital and in witnessing the anguish of families like their own who remain strong during their child’s unfortunate battle. The palliative care program provides inpatient consultation services for families as well as educates providers about palliative care which focuses on keeping the patient comfortable while maintaining the highest quality of life despite acute injury or illness. After seeing the struggles experienced by families around them, I believe that when you see the effects of these life-threatening circumstances, you can’t help but be compelled to get involved.
