Psychosocial Services
With Counsellors, Therapists, and Spiritual Care Specialists, the Psychosocial Services department supports both patients and also families.
During the progressive stages of life-limiting illness, we offer:
- Professional counselling for patients and their families on issues related to grief, death and dying
- Help with practical concerns like funeral planning, wills and finances
- Spiritual care for all faiths, cultures and beliefs
Following a death, we offer:
- Assessment and grief counselling as needed for one year following the death
- A variety of support groups and services for adults and children.
