“Grief is not an event, it’s a constant unfolding.”
Rex Allen, Grief Support Services Program Supervisor
Providence Hospice of Seattle offers a full range of compassionate response to children and adults who are grieving the loss of a significant person. We realize the importance of acknowledging the unique grieving process of every individual. Included in this acknowledgement is the understanding that grief has no timeline.
We offer a variety of opportunities for ongoing support and education regarding grief, loss, and life adjustments following the death of a significant person. Our purpose is to help individuals, families and communities identify their needs and strengths and to provide them a supportive presence for up to 13 months after the death.
Our program offerings reflect a continuum of support for children to older adults and is available not only to families of hospice patients, but to anyone grieving who resides within King and South Snohomish Counties.
Adult Grief Services
Our services include a variety of grief support groups, individual assessments and counseling, special commemorative events, and educational workshops to businesses and other organizations in the community. If you are grieving the death of a significant person we can help guide you to resources, either within hospice or in the community at large. Please call 206-749-7702 for more information.
