Bereavement

Bereavement Support

Bereavement support is offered to you and your family after the death of a loved one. Bereavement addresses the phases of grief and acceptance. Our bereavement coordinator, Carol DeJong, provides one on one support to the patient’s family by providing home visits, phone calls and volunteer visits. We follow individuals for at least one year after the death to provide support and encouragement.

The Bereavement Coordinator also coordinates in-service presentations at facilities to educate patients, families, and the community on topics that aren’t easily talked about. Call Carol DeJong to schedule a free in-service at your facility!
