About this Event

Bereavement 101

Hospice Simcoe’s Clinical Coach, Amy Pritzker, MSW RSW, is happy to offer “Grief & Bereavement 101” to individuals who work or volunteer in Hospice Palliative Care or Social Services.

When we work with people, no matter our role, we are often confronted with grief and loss. This two-part training will address some of the basics of grief, including debunking common myths and misconceptions, how to support a grieving person, and what to do when grief gets messy. Delivered through Microsoft Teams, this interactive workshop includes videos and reflective exercises and offers an opportunity to explore grief and loss through the lens of our own experiences and through the stories of others.

Please note that this training does involve self-reflection on one's relationship with death, dying, grief and loss. We encourage participants to create a self-care plan and to structure their environment in a way that will best support them while talking about difficult subject matter.

Day 2 of this event is only half a day, 9:30 to 12:30.
