Many who enter a healthcare facility feel a sense of loss as they leave behind the comfort and independence of home. The authors of this helpful booklet suggest looking at the experience as a time for new beginnings, rather than an ending. Guidance and comfort are offered in sections titled: Honor your feelings, Live in the present moment, Name the stress, Discovering ways to hope, and Share your gifts.
