1 Welcome to Understanding Loss & Bereavement There is a range of evidence (Stephen et al 2006) that the way those who have been bereaved experience the events around the time of death will influence the trajectory of their grief journey. Where health services get it right, showing empathy and providing good quality care, bereaved people are supported to accept the death, and to move into the grieving process as a natural progression. Conversely if the health services get it wrong, then bereaved people may experience additional distress, and that distress will interfere with their successful transition through the grieving process, with implications for them, those around them and for the social economy of the nation. Some Pointers to Pre- Bereavement Work Bereavement care should begin as soon as death is expected Clear information about dying and what the relatives might expect Discussions about post mortem DNACPR Place of dying Proving spiritual and religious care before and after the death Providing a suitable environment if in hospital Managing the death with sensitivity and with clear unambiguous language Proving a place of privacy for the family Proving the death certificate and other necessary paperwork with adequate explanation and sensitivity. Treating the deceased and last offices with sensitivity and where applicable involving family members.

5 Meaning Making Cultural Issues Looks at loss not as a series of stages people go through but as an active process in which they make meaning (sense) of their changing lives Professional carers need to be aware of differing beliefs and customs and how they might affect the care and support required While many individuals hold no strong religious beliefs, there are a range of individuals who share similar or different beliefs within our community Ten ways to help - 1 Ten ways to help 2 By being there By listening & accepting in a nonjudgmental way By demonstrating empathy By encouraging them to talk By tolerating silences By being familiar with your own feelings By being able to reassure the person By not taking the person s feelings personally By recognising that your feelings may be a reflection of theirs By accepting that you cannot make them feel better grief takes it s own time
6 Useful Web Addresses Let me reassure you that it is OK to feel uneasy or afraid. it is OK to feel eerie or unduly tense, to hide and cry, to want to swear or scream, or lash out at easy targets. It is OK to feel relieved or even happy when someone dies. It is OK to feel whatever is real. Feelings have no morality. They are neither good nor bad always ethically neutral.
