Ohio’s Hospice LifeCare Offers Bereavement Workshop Focused on Death’s Impact on the Family System
When a member of a family dies, the entire family is affected. It’s as if an important link in the family chain is suddenly broken and lost, and everyone is locked in a struggle to find the missing link and repair the broken chain.
For those who have experienced the death of a loved and need grief support services, the Pathways of HopeSM Grief Counseling Center at Ohio’s Hospice LifeCare is offering a bereavement workshop, “Death’s Impact on the Family System,” on Monday, April 10, 5:30-6:45 pm, at Ohio’s Hospice LifeCare (1900 Akron Rd., Wooster, Ohio 44691).
David Hargrave, LSW, CCTP, CGCS, bereavement counseling professional with Ohio’s Hospice LifeCare, will lead the workshop. During the workshop, Hargrave will lead a discussion addressing common challenges grieving families face, keys to family reorganization after a loss, and elements of a healing family.
