Grinnell Regional Medical Center’s Hospice will offer
a five-week grief support group designed for anyone in the community who has
lost a loved one. The group will explore the challenges associated with loss as
well as the opportunities that loss presents for healing and growth.
“Grieving is
normal and a process. Our grief support group will be a safe place for
participants to share their loss and fond memories of their loved one,” says
Randy Svendsen, LBSW, GRMC social worker.
“Everyone travels down the grief
journey in their unique way but we share common stages and emotions. The intent
of this group is for grieving individuals to explore ways to remember, heal,
and grow.”
Gatherings will be held on five Thursdays, beginning October
18 and running through November 15. The support group will be held at 6 p.m. at
the First Presbyterian Church, 1025 5th Ave., Grinnell.
There is no fee to participate, but interested persons
must pre-register by calling Grinnell Regional Hospice at 641-236-2418.
