The Care Journal is a tool developed by the Josie King Foundation to promote interactive exchange among providers and patients/families.

Parents who used the Care Journal and nursing staff found it to be a useful tool that improved communication, made parents feel more knowledgeable and empowered, and improved parents' overall perception of the hospital stay.
