Grief and Loss Support
When a loved one passes away, it’s common for family members to experience a range of emotions and bodily reactions, which can leave them dealing with intense sorrow and new obstacles.
People who have experienced a loss must be able to openly discuss their experiences, thoughts, and reactions at this difficult time. The Bereavement Support Service at Hospice Specialized Home Care in Wichita provides friends and family with the assistance they require as they begin this journey. They can acknowledge the death, receive assistance with the more pressing issues of living while grieving, share their pain, sadness, tears, memories, and stories, and gain insight into their experiences from a dedicated pool of volunteers working one-on-one either by phone, in person, or online.
Emotional and Spiritual Support
Serious sickness can result in a wide range of distress. Although dealing with a major illness can result in mental and spiritual pain as well, there is also bodily discomfort. You could be asking, “Why is this happening?” If you lose the ability to perform things you used to be able to do, you could become frustrated. Perhaps you’re experiencing financial stress, loneliness, or worry about the future of your family. An important aspect of hospice care is attending to the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of terminally ill patients.
