Grief Group & Support Video
Mayo Clinic Hospice has been an active member in the community workgroup, Community Reflections on Living and Dying since its inception 2 years ago. The group is comprised of various organizations, individuals and business who are passionate about normalizing the end of life and grief processes. This group typically offers various in person education and events during the month of November for Hospice and Palliative Care Month, however due to COVID, we moved to hosting virtual events. The link below is to a video staring our own Hospice Bereavement Coordinator Ann Siverling as well as other community professionals. The video is intended to normalized the grief and loss people are feeling during the pandemic and offer hope and ways to support. We plan to make more videos available for public viewing and will share when they are completed. We hope this video assists in normalizing your grief journey during the pandemic. Please feel free to share with anyone who may want to view the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2IM4tp_u2s&t=102s
