Get the support you need during your family's health journey
Gillette Children's is partnering with CaringBridge to make it easy for family caregivers and patients to connect with their family and friends on a dedicated CaringBridge page and receive social, emotional, and functional support.
CaringBridge offers tools to share health news at once, (reducing the overwhelm feeling of responding to text messages, emails and phone calls), simplifies care coordination, and connects family caregivers and patients to their community for support.
Activate your support community on your CaringBridge page.
Caregiver Support
2/3 of CaringBridge caregivers receive a matched offer of support within 24 hours of their request.
Patient Support
CaringBridge provides a means for patients to receive emotional support (~40% of posts) and instrumental support (25% of posts).
Types of Support
Caregivers rank chores, food, financial assistance, personal care, and transportation as the most important categories of support.
CaringBridge families research findings: Bloom 2021 and Smith 2020.

"Using CaringBridge to talk about our journey and to post journal entries and pictures became very cathartic for us. It just made you feel like you had a sense of community, even though you didn't have it right there staring you in the face."
