This past Friday marked the final day of Patient and Family-Centered Care (PFCC) Week! 💙

This week celebrates the incredible work of PFCC teams who ensure patients and families are involved in every aspect of care.

At the Children’s Center, the week was filled with meaningful moments of connection and appreciation, including:
🍦 An ice cream social
💺 Massage chairs for patient families
🎉 Caregiver bingo
🎤 A new Grand Rounds topic featuring guest speakers

The PFCC team also launched a new monthly initiative— “Operation Drip” ☕—bringing a coffee cart directly to patient families on different units, one small way to support them during their time here.

And throughout March, the PFCC team has been proud to go “Hopkins Local,” partnering with Baltimore-area vendors to provide weekly family lunches.

Grateful for the opportunity to support our patients and families—not just this week, but every day. 💙

🌟 Celebrating Social Work Month! 🌟

Today we honor our incredible Specialty Care Pediatric Social Workers, who provide vital support to children and families navigating chronic and complex medical conditions- Jerilyne, Shaine and Ieona.

In specialty clinics across our hospital, these social workers walk beside families facing long-term diagnoses, intensive treatment plans, and the uncertainty that can come with chronic illness. With deep clinical expertise and unwavering compassion, they provide emotional support, crisis response, resource navigation, mental health guidance, and long-term care coordination.

They build trusted relationships that help families feel seen, heard, and empowered. They advocate fiercely for patient needs, collaborate closely with interdisciplinary teams, and help ensure families never have to navigate their journey alone.

Our specialty care social workers bring strength, stability, and hope to some of the most challenging moments families face. Their dedication transforms care and enriches lives every single day.

Thank you for your commitment, your heart, and your extraordinary impact. 💙
