PCSBV - Grief and Loss

Grieving is a very personal process that we all deal with in different ways. Loss and grief can begin as early as when a diagnosis of terminal illness is given, and fluctuates and changes as the rest of the journey unfolds. It can flow around in ripples or crashing waves, but coping with loss and grief, while personal, doesnt need to be a journey on your own.

Counsellors, such as social workers, financial advisors and psychologists, help you and your caregivers cope with the impact of your illness. They are there to help you with many types of needs. These include emotional, financial and any practical needs.

They can give you:

• Individual and family counselling about coping with illness, loss and grief
• Information about practical and financial resources
• Information about hospice palliative care resources in our communities
• Support with transitions from home to hospital and back again
• Organizing family meetings with your health care team
• Information about Advance Care Planning
