One of the most rewarding parts of what we do is watching a child grow into their own confidence and begin to shine.

These two have come such a long way in therapy. What once felt challenging is now met with smiles, and so much progress. Getting to witness that transformation is something we’ll never take for granted. 🙏🏼💜

Their journey is a beautiful reminder that progress looks different for every child, and every step forward matters!

Today we’re celebrating two very special members of our PATCHES family!

Happy Birthday to our wonderful CEO and co-founder, Kyle Smith, whose heart and dedication have helped make PATCHES the special place it is today. Your vision has touched so many lives, and we are forever grateful for the love you continue to pour into our mission and our children.

And a very Happy Birthday to our sweet birthday boy, Benji! Watching our children grow and celebrating these special milestones with them is one of the greatest joys of what we do. Swipe to see how big our birthday boy has gotten! 😭💜

Two very different birthdays, but both equally special to our PATCHES family. Wishing you both a beautiful year ahead filled with so much love and happiness! 🎂

Both of these photos show a form of communication. 💜

October is AAC Awareness Month! Whether it’s using his AAC device during speech therapy or simply pointing to show his nurse something, each interaction is an opportunity for him to express himself and be understood.

🌟AAC stands for ➡️ Augmentative and Alternative Communication. These tools help individuals who have difficulty with verbal speech communication through pictures, symbols, or speech-generating devices. AAC isn’t just about expressing basic needs. It’s about giving people more opportunities to connect with the world around them.

At PATCHES, we celebrate all forms of communication because every child deserves to have a voice, and every voice deserves to be heard.

Who says our nursing students are the only ones who get to learn? We love watching moments like these unfold at PATCHES.

Help us spread a little extra holiday joy at our Fort Pierce center this season!

Each year, the Port St. Lucie Police Athletic League, with a little help from Santa Claus, delivers gifts to the medically complex children at PATCHES, and you can be part of making that day extra special.

They’ve put together an Amazon Wishlist filled with toys our children will love. If you’d like to help, please choose an item from the list and donate an unwrapped gift. Click the link in our bio to browse our Wishlist!
