WEBINAR DETAILS

When talking about grief/loss interventions, one thing is clear: one single approach will never be the best approach for everyone. People grieve and mourn in different ways and in turn have very different needs. Some people find support groups helpful, and others do not. A lot has been learned about virtual programming and interventions throughout the COVID lockdowns. 

This webinar will take an extensive look into the multitude of programming options and variables. It will also provide a three-phase approach to program expansion based on available resources and timeline goals.

THIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES:

  • Hospice
  • Palliative Care

TESTIMONIALS

"With all the options provided with this webinar, including handouts, the ability to print slides for notes, etc. I don't see how this could've been any better. This was one of the most practical and comprehensive webinars that I've attended to date. Awesome resources in addition to the information provided, to assist with further research and preparation was also a welcomed plus. This webinar challenges the serious provider to stretch out to be better and provide even more effective care for patients and their families. Thank you!"
