An update for the hospice visitor books

Dementia-friendly books
Covers of hospice visitor books

I have some updated covers for the Thinking of You hospice-friendly visitor books! I wanted something a little more vibrant, to stand out on a bedside table or coverlet.

These visitor books are like the Get Well Visitor books, but without the Get Well wording. They can be used as standard hospital visitor books, but also for palliative care, chronic illness, or a difficult diagnosis.

For anyone in this situation, all the profound good wishes in the world to you. I hope you are constantly reminded of how much people love and value you.

And if you are visiting someone in hospice, and wonder what you’ll say, here’s a lovely article from the Cancer Council of Victoria. And do remember that when someone seems unresponsive, they may be too tired to open their eyes, but still be able to hear. So always speak to them, never about them. It’s a beautiful opportunity to talk about what they have meant to you, or to revisit great times you’ve shared.
