Blankets

The Jojo Blanket and Sacred Education for nursing staff began in 2020. Innovating best practices for end-of-life pediatric care, the Live Like Jojo foundation created and implemented Jojo’s Rule and the Jojo blankets. The Jojo blanket is a tool to create a moment… a moment of respect, a moment for a conversation, a moment of connection. These blankets can be taken home or can stay with a patient after parents leave. The choice is up to the family.  The blanket presentation requires the nursing staff to have an intentional pause requiring staff to slow down and review the PAUSE guideline attached to each blanket box. This is a time to reflect on the significance of the moment and the impact that our words and actions have on our families.
