Festival 2022

Remembered Always: Our patients of 2021

Organised by QEUH Critical Care Bereavement Support

QEUH Critical Care Bereavement Support are delighted to be taking part in the Absent Friends Festival, joining with families to remember our patients we lost in 2021.

The families of our deceased patients will shortly be receiving a wooden heart memento and an invite to participate in our Act of Remembrance by returning the name tag with their loved one's name on.

Our Bereavement Team will gather together to carry out the Act of Remembrance, where our patient’s names will be read out and the tags placed on the Tree of Remembrance.

The Tree of Remembrance will be situated in the Critical Care reception to allow both staff and relatives time for acknowledgement and reflection during Absent Friends Festival week.
