OUR BEREAVEMENT SUPPORTS
Cultivating Your Organizations Legacy.
RESIDENTIAL CARE PROGRAMS
Grief Advocacy supports retirement and long-term care homes across Canada with Residential Grief, Death and Legacy Programming. This is a topic that is often top of mind for your residents and we work to ensuring they not only have someone to talk to about their legacy but also have factual information about end of life options. We have programs that include families or employees to ensure conversations are transparent and meaningful.
RITUAL & CEREMONY
It is in moments of hard transitions that we can remember what is most important to us. Resident End of Life Care, Memorials Services, Employee Death, Mergers & Acquisitions, New office buildings, layoffs or leadership changes are just some of the meaningful moments that we mark through ritual and ceremony. We can share some wonderful examples of what other organizations have done to mark important transitions.
