Bereavement Support

At JHC Hospice, we are committed to creating a pain free and peaceful death, but we are also dedicated to supporting those who grieve and we hold the vision that no one grieves alone. Support programs can be a vital part of the healing process during bereavement, and JHC works hard to extend the highest quality of care to the families of patients after the loss of a loved one.

JHC Hospice will reach out in various ways over the first year following the death of your loved one to provide support as part of the healing process. This support includes phone calls, mailings, individual counseling, and bereavement groups.

 

Bereavement Support Groups

Individuals all grieve in their own way. Coming together in community can be incredibly helpful. JHC Hospice offers Bereavement Support Group services throughout the year. The group is facilitated by a bereavement social worker. The hope of the group is to create a safe and supportive place to tell stories, gain information and awareness about grief and share ways of healing. These groups are open to the community as well as to our hospice families.

For more information and a schedule of these services please call JHC Hospice at 508-713-0512

Memory Garden and Service of Remembrance

Twice a year JHC Hospice invites family, friends, and caregivers of the patients we cared for to come together for an in-house Service of Remembrance and Healing. The service is offered to honor those who have died in our compassionate care. During this special service prayers are lifted, along with inspirational readings and music to honor your loved one.   All participants are invited to share memories. We welcome everyone regardless of your faith or non-faith beliefs.   The service concludes in The Memory Garden. The Memory Garden was created as a place for all to reflect and to grieve and to remember. A stone is chosen, passed, and placed in our garden as a symbol of permanent memory. After the service, there will be a chance to visit again with the hospice staff, volunteers, families and JHC staff.

For more information and a schedule of these services please call JHC Hospice at 508-713-0512
