At Hospice of Laramie, we offer emotional support before, during, and after death. We understand that grief is a natural part of life and the journey through grief is life-changing. Grief is an individual process and there is no right way to grieve. It is not something we can “get over” in a few days, weeks, or months.
There is no end to grief but there is healing in grief. Experiencing and working through grief will allow you to adjust to life after loss. To heal in grief is to reconcile your grief and find new meaning in life.
Our bereavement services help you work toward reconciling your grief to move forward in your life without the physical presence of the person who died. Our patients’ families receive bereavement services for thirteen months or longer after the death of a loved one. Family members receive bereavement support phone calls or visits, invitations to our annual community memorial services and receive a monthly newsletter, Journeys, which is published by the Hospice Foundation of America. We also offer two support groups, Good Grief Café and a structured twelve-week bereavement support group.
Bereavement services, including our support groups, are available to community members and your loved one does not need to be a Hospice patient for you to benefit from our services.
Hospice of Laramie is dedicated to providing a safe place for grieving people to share their experiences and to support one another. Please contact Hospice of Laramie to benefit from any of our bereavement services.
When we lose someone we love, we must learn not to live without them, but to live with the love they left behind.
