Dealing with Loss

with Laura Ward, Hospicare’s Manager of Psychosocial Services

Join us for a special program on grief and loss. Grief is the natural response to profound loss and is the expression of the strong bond you had with the person who died. No two people grieve in exactly the same way, and how we express our grief is influenced by many things, such as our religious and personal beliefs, the circumstances of the death, and how we dealt with previous losses.

Hospicare offers grief support services for all those who live in Tompkins or Cortland Counties, regardless of whether your loved one used Hospicare services. Participating in this programs provides you with the opportunity to share thoughts, feelings, and experiences with others in similar situations and can enhance the healing process and reduce a sense of isolation.

This event is part of Hospicare’s community programs with Longview. Workshops are free and open to all. Workshops will be held in person at Longview. Social distancing, health screening, and masks will be required. Limited to 15 participants. To register call (607) 375-6335 or email bnash@longviewithaca.org.
