Everyone could use a little comfort sometimes! Our Comfort Carts show our patients, team members, and families that St. John’s ICARE Foundation and St. John’s Episcopal Hospital genuinely care about their health and well-being.
Items on the Comfort Carts typically include snacks, hygiene products, and stress relief items. The carts are managed by the Pastoral Care Unit at St. John’s Episcopal Hospital, which stocks, cleans, and circulates them around the Hospital daily, bringing some soothing amenities to patients and healthcare workers.
