The goal is to have a Rose Compassion Room in University Maternity Hospital, Limerick where women or couples will be guaranteed a gentle, safe atmosphere to be cared for with compassion when being given sensitive pregancy news. Having a suitable, empathic space lessens not only the stress and trauma to the patients, but also to the healthcare professionals and caregivers, too. The Rose Room was inaugurated with the Irish Hospice Foundation (whom through a competitive process provided the funding), and has since provided a private, dignified sanctuary within (but feels miles away from) a typically sterile hospital space. It is hoped that this approach in interior design becomes a model for other hospitals in Ireland.
