Limb-risk Care package

This program provides a care package of basic comfort items along with a handmade quilt to patients in the nine-state Rocky Mountain Region who are in active treatment for limb-threatening extremity trauma, tumor, or infection.

Examples of help provided by the Care Package Program:

Comfort

Our care package program includes a quilt, providing warmth and comfort to patients during their challenging times. This quilt serves as a tangible reminder that they are not alone in their journey.

Essentials

Each care package is thoughtfully curated with basic comfort items designed to meet the needs of patients. From personal hygiene products to activities, our goal is to offer practical support that enhances their well-being.

Connections

We believe in the power of connection. Our care packages aim to bring a piece of home to those facing difficult circumstances, helping to uplift spirits and foster a sense of community during treatment.

About care packages

Treatment and recovery from limb surgeries can be traumatic, both physically and emotionally.  We created the LPF Limb-Risk Care Package program to lift the spirits of recovering patients experiencing extended periods of bed rest or restricted activity. LPF provides a care package of basic comfort items, including a quilt to help patients feel less alone during this challenging time.

A patient must be in active treatment for a limb-threatening condition related to one of the following and live in the Rocky Mountain Region – Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming:

  • Extremity tumor
  • Extremity trauma
  • Extremity infection

Firehouse Quilts has been working with the Limb Preservation Foundation for 12 years creating the beautiful quilts that LPF sends along with care bags to patients in the hospital. Most of the volunteers are retired and were drawn to the organization from a desire to do something meaningful with their free time.

“The members of FHQ get great satisfaction knowing the time spent on making a quilt is greatly appreciated by the recipients of the quilts,” Jacque
