Holy Name Medical Center Hospice and Palliative Services Bereavement Support Group

December 27, 2011

Teaneck, NJ - Holy Name Medical Center Hospice and Palliative Services offers a bereavement program to provide compassionate support and education to those who have suffered the loss of a loved one.   Since many individuals experiencing loss find comfort in sharing their feelings with one another, a bereavement group "Sharing the Journey" was developed to provide support and guidance during the grieving process. The group is non-sectarian and will be facilitated by trained bereavement counselors.  "Sharing the Journey" will run for eight weeks and is open to those who have experienced loss in the past year.   In order to meet the needs of our participants, the group meetings are being offered either on Monday evenings from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. beginning January 16th or on Tuesday afternoons from 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. beginning January 17th.

Please call Lenore Guido at 201-833-3188, ext. 7580 or Claudia Coenen at ext. 7483 to register or for further information.  There is no charge for the program.
