Atlantic General Hospital To Offer Grief Support Workshop

Berlin, Md. – Atlantic General Hospital will be offering a free Grief Support Workshop beginning on Monday, January 4, 2016.

The goal of the grief support workshop is to provide participants hope for the future and the skills to help find their way.

This is done through:

• Understanding the grief process.
• Having a safe place to talk about the loss and the emotions manifested by grief.
• Exploring individual solutions while living with the loss.
• Embracing new roles and responsibilities.

Grieving the death of a loved one is a process that is distinct for each person. There is no timetable or defined route. This workshop is designed to help those left behind to understand and manage their grief as they move forward toward hope and healing.

The workshop is facilitated by experienced Pastoral and Supportive Care Services leaders each Monday from 2:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. January 4 through February 8, 2016.

For more information and to register for this free workshop, call Gail Mansell at (410) 641-9725.
