Pet therapy dogs have long been making a difference for our patients. Now, they're bringing joy to our team members. Introducing Doyle and Blitzen, two of the newest and furriest members of the Hackensack Meridian family. Their job is to provide comfort and support to first responders at JFK University Medical Center who face high-stress, high-stakes situations every day. The innovative program was born from our mission to support the mental health of our team, and created by Paul, JFK's clinical supervisor of EMS, and Dennis, who oversees a similar unit at Hackensack University Medical Center. The two worked quickly to build a source of peer support and mental resilience. “The handlers themselves are trained in peer support and mental health resilience,” says Paul. “The dogs are an incredible icebreaker. They open the door for conversations and allow us to connect with team members, offering support and referring them to HMH’s vast array of resources if they need it.” Doyle and Blitzen are our first therapy dogs not here for patients or visitors, but with the sole focus on the well being of our first responders. The pups are team members' personal pets, and handlers are volunteers who are passionate about the cause. All of them undergo rigorous training to prepare for the role. The program has been met with incredible enthusiasm — and a third dog is set to join the team soon.
Community care — always and in all ways. We are fortunate to have the best team out there, made up of incredible individuals who are committed to keeping our patients safe and well. At this time of year, that's truer than ever. This week, team members across our hospitals volunteered to put together cold weather kits for our neighbors in need. They gathered to assemble adult and child sized gloves, hats, neck gaiters and socks, which were donated to shelters and warming centers throughout New Jersey by network leaders. Thank you to the HMH family, whose holiday spirit of generosity, empathy and gratitude remains year round.
