The article highlights an appeal for more nurses and care specialists at a hospice in High Barnet, featuring Talin Al-Khatib and her palliative carer Sophie Evans. Talin enjoys hydrotherapy sessions, bringing joy that uplifts both caregivers and family. Supported by Sarah Parish, who has personal experience with pediatric illness, the hospice aims to recruit compassionate individuals to provide emotional and psychological support to seriously ill children and their families. This initiative focuses on enhancing family quality of life while addressing the trauma of pediatric care.
Sophie gives little Talin regular hydrotherapy in the specialised pool at the hospice. Talin doesn't speak but always smiles when she knows she's going in the pool.
Sarah Parish and her husband are funding therapy sessions at the hospice through their Murray-Parish foundation trust set up after their own daughter Ella-Jayne died from a congenital heart defect in 2009.
It's vital that we attract candidates for these roles to offer choices to families and help more children who need us.
