Bereavement Programs (Scroll to bottom to view current programs)

Individual Anticipatory Bereavement Support: Experiencing a palliative diagnosis of one we love can certainly be a challenging and difficult experience.  The uncertainty, the rollercoaster of emotions, the not knowing what to say or how to begin conversations, the stress of caregiving, how to create legacy leaving and memory making… these can all seem quite overwhelming.  We are here to support you along the way.
 
Individual Bereavement Support: One someone we love dies we are left to navigate an often, difficult path.  Grief comes in many forms. Each of us will have our own unique way of expressing and experiencing our loss.  We are here to guide you along a process that though is normal natural and needed, also can feel isolating, frightening and confusing.  

8 Week Bereavement Group for Adults: If you feel support alongside others who are experiencing a similar situation would be helpful to you, the Norfolk Haldimand Community Hospice offers an 8-week group facilitated by our Bereavement Care Provider.  Each week will have a specific topic and participants are encourage to commit to the full 8 weeks to ensure the best experience for themselves and other participants.
