We continuously, compassionately care about you.

After the death of a loved one, the support system of Premier Hospice does not end. Our bereavement (grief) counselours are here to help and guide the bereaved through their grief and mourning.

The Grief Support Program at Premier Hospice offers supportive services to grasp the understanding of grief and the grief process, to obtain healthy coping skills, and to express feelings with others who are or have experienced loss.

The Grief Support Program encompasses the following primary objectives:

• Examine normal reactions to grief.
• Identify and express feelings associated with the loss of a loved one.
• Facilitate one’s ability to live without the deceased.
• Transform the pain of loss into a renewed hope for living.

Our Grief Support Program begins immediately after the death of your loved one and continues for 13 months. There is no cost to participate in the Grief Support Program. Anyone related or unrelated to the patient who is interested in the program can take part.
