The Faces of Healing After Loss
Hospice of the Chesapeake
Living with the loss of loved ones has never received more focus than in the wake of the pandemic. The purpose-driven work of those who help grievers heal from loss has come to the forefront along with a new universal focus on mental health. For your hometown hospice, Hospice of the Chesapeake, that light shines brightly on our grief support team in the Chesapeake Life Center.
Not only were people struggling to cope with the death of their loved ones, but they were often having to do it alone. There also has been a rise of deaths from substance misuse and suicide. The Chesapeake Life Center team is doing all they can to break through the walls of isolation, using trauma-informed skills and individualized grief support to let grievers know they are never alone.
Fostering a healthy grief experience for individuals and families no matter where they are in their journey with loss is essential to improving resilience, wellness and health inequities in communities. Led by Director Brian Berger, this team of uniquely trained professionals strives to provide a safe, healing place for grievers to share their story, learn coping strategies, and to honor and remember loved ones. These are some of the Chesapeake Life Center team: The Faces of Healing After Loss in our community.
