FAMILY SUPPORT - IN 2022, CRESCENT COVE INCREASED THE NUMBER OF FAMILIES SUPPORTED FROM 251 IN 2021 TO 348 IN 2022. CHILDREN AND FAMILIES WERE SERVED FOR RESPITE OR END-OF-LIFE CARE OVER 738 NIGHTS IN 2022 COMPARED TO 575 NIGHTS IN 2021. FOLLOWING RECEIPT OF A REFERRAL AND COMPLETION OF ENROLLMENT PAPERWORK, FAMILIES WHO HAVE CHILDREN WITH LIFE-THREATENING CONDITIONS RECEIVE SUPPORT BY BRINGING THEIR CHILD AND/OR FAMILY FOR A SHORT STAY AT CRESCENT COVE'S HOSPICE AND RESPITE HOME IN ORDER TO HAVE A NECESSARY BREAK FROM THE DEMANDING 24/7 CARES FOR THEIR CHILD OR AS A SACRED AND SUPPORTIVE PLACE TO BE WHEN A CHILD IS DYING. CRESCENT COVE HAS REGISTERED NURSES AND CERTIFIED NURSING ASSISTANTS CARING FOR CHILDREN 24/7 WITH SUPPORT FROM A SOCIAL WORKER, CHILD EXPERIENCE SPECIALIST, MEDICAL DIRECTOR AND DIRECTOR OF NURSING AND OPERATIONS AND VOLUNTEERS. IN 2022, CRESCENT COVE MET THE GOAL FROM A STAFFING PERSPECTIVE OF HAVING 2 RN'S ON EACH SHIFT PROVIDING THE ABILITY TO CARE FOR MORE CHILDREN WHILE MAINTAINING INFECTION CONTROL STANDARDS WITH NO TRANSMISSIONS OF ILLNESSES BETWEEN STAFF AND CHILDREN AND FAMILIES SERVED. IN 2022, CRESCENT COVE WELCOMED MORE PARENTS FOR OVERNIGHT STAYS TO ACCOMPANY THE FIRST NIGHT OF RESPITE STAY FOR CHILDREN WHO WERE STAYING FOR THE FIRST TIME AS WELL AS THOSE STAYING FOR END-OF-LIFE CARE. INTEGRATIVE THERAPIES LIKE MUSIC THERAPY, MASSAGE THERAPY, CREATIVE ARTS AND PET THERAPY CONTINUED TO BE PROVIDED SEVERAL TIMES EACH WEEK. CRESCENT COVE HOSTED A SIBLING CAMP FOR THE FIRST TIME WITH 13 PARTICIPANTS AS WELL AS FAMILY GATHERINGS FOR A BACK TO SCHOOL GATHERING, MEMORIAL GATHERING AND HOLIDAY DRIVE-THRU. ADVOCACY & EDUCATION - A LARGE PART OF CRESCENT COVE'S EFFORT TOWARDS ACHIEVING OUR MISSION IS TO RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL SUPPORT FOR CHILDREN. IN EARLY 2022, CRESCENT COVE SUBMITTED A BILL TO THE MINNESOTA STATE LEGISLATURE ADVOCATING FOR STATE COVERAGE FOR END-OF-LIFE CARE FOR CHILDREN AT A RESIDENTIAL HOSPICE. THE BILL WAS NOT PASSED DURING THE 2022 LEGISLATIVE SESSION AS THE LEGISLATURE ENDED UP ONLY PASSING A FEW BILLS WITHOUT FISCAL NOTES AND SO IT WILL BE PRESENTED AGAIN IN 2023. ADDITIONALLY, CRESCENT COVE HOSTED ITS ANNUAL PEDIATRIC PALLIATIVE CARE SYMPOSIUM IN OCTOBER, 2022 WITH OVER 100 VIRTUAL PARTICIPANTS AND 6 LOCAL, NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL PRESENTERS. THE MISSION OF CRESCENT COVE WAS ALSO SHARED AT SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS WITH ROTARY CLUBS, LIONS CLUB AND MANY OTHER EVENTS HELD AND PLANNED IN SUPPORT OF CRESCENT COVE'S MISSION. INTERNALLY, EDUCATION IS OFFERED ON A REGULAR BASIS TO STAFF AT MONTHLY CLINICAL MEETINGS AND QUARTERLY ALL-STAFF MEETINGS.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2022 – Dec 31, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.9M
