Our Mission

---

Our mission is to provide dignity and enhance solace for families and individuals experiencing an end-of-life journey in a hospital or facing financial hardship due to serious illness.

“We envision an environment enveloped with comfort, sensitivity, and care for all people who experience the loss of a loved one while in an institutional setting or going through serious illness.” 

Lorene Morris, Transitional Bridges Founder and President

The experience of how the transition from life to death is handled in the hospital directly impacts how individuals will cope with their loved one’s death. Death is emotionally difficult and sometimes traumatic regardless of age, cause of death, or whether expected. Family and caregivers present at the bedside before and at the time of death receive their loved one’s personal belongings after they have expired. Transitional Bridges offers medical professionals’ tools to seamlessly elevate end-of-life care to ensure the utmost dignity and support during critical times creating a positive experience directly connected to the facility.

Financial hardships can overshadow the impact of serious illness and negatively impact our physical healing. Through the generosity of private donors, Transitional Bridges Patient Assistance Program can support those experiencing dire circumstances by providing grants to fund basic needs. Healing begins when we join to support others during vulnerable times.
