Grief support that doesn't end at the funeral
Hospice care doesn't stop when a patient dies. For 13 months afterward, our bereavement team walks alongside the family — with check-ins, practical resources, and a real person to call on the hard days.
What our bereavement support includes
- Regular check-ins by phone and mail through the first 13 months, timed around the moments that tend to be hardest.
- One-on-one support from our bereavement coordinator and chaplain — someone who knew your family's story.
- Practical guidance for the paperwork and decisions that follow a death, when thinking clearly is hardest.
- Connection to community resources — support groups, counselors, and specialized help for children and teens.
Our team has also written plain-language guides on the first year of grief, grieving before a loss, and helping children understand death.
Grief has no schedule
There is no right way to grieve and no deadline for finishing. Waves that arrive months later are normal. Laughing again is normal. Talking to the person you lost is normal. What matters is having support when you want it — and knowing the difference between hard-but-normal grief and grief that needs more help.
In crisis? Call or text 988 — the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — any time, free, 24/7.
