Covenant Hospice offers grief support and encourages individuals who have experienced the death of a loved one to attend a free six-week grief support group that will meet each Thursday, starting March 27 through May 1 from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. The meetings will be held at the Wakulla Library located at 4330 Crawfordville Highway in Crawfordville, FL.
Bereavement Services are an integral part of the special care provided by Covenant Hospice. Grief is a normal, natural response after a loved one’s death, but the feeling of loss after the death can be overwhelming. Elizabeth Robinson, MSW, Covenant Hospice Bereavement Specialist provides grief support through support groups, workshops and individual counseling.
“A caring support system is important and a group setting can bring individuals together with others who have experienced the similar situation,” Robinson said.
Support groups are a compassionate and caring environment that offer education and information about the grief process and helpful suggestions for individual situations.
If you would like more information about grief, or to register for the grief support groups, please contact Elizabeth Robinson, MSW at (850) 575-4998 or toll free 1-800-374-9733.
