175 Glenside Avenue, Scotch Plains, NJ 07076   (908) 654-3711

  Directions

The Center for Hope Hospice & Palliative Care bereavement services, which are available to all, takes survivors through the step-by-step journey toward acceptance and healing.  The bereavement program continues for up to 13 months following the death of a loved one.  Survivors can participate in the Center's "Journey Through Grief" lecture and discussion series which addresses issues such as anger, guilt, survival and healing over a period of six weeks.  In addition, family members have the opportunity to join "grief-related" groups that offer support for the specific needs of widows, widowers, parents or children.  Individual counseling is available for all situations.

Children ages 5 through 15 receive particularly careful handling within the Children's Bereavement Program.  The age of the children and their involvement with the patient during a terminal illness are major considerations in determining what kind of support will be most helpful.  All bereavement services at the Center For Hope Hospice & Palliative Care are provided by trained grief support counselors.

Camp Starbright offers bereavement day camp opportunities for children who have experienced the death of a loved one.
