Grief (Bereavement) Services

The death of a loved one is the most profound of all sorrows. Although family members and friends may be supportive immediately following a death, there are times when they seem to feel the grieving person should be ready to “return to normal.” This may happen long before the grief process has been resolved. Someone outside the family who cares, understands and listens may be exactly what’s needed.

Yolo Hospice provides bereavement services to those who have recently lost loved ones. These services are available to those who’ve been in our care as well as community members.
