Grief and Loss Support Group (Six Week Session)

Starting: Tuesday, September 5th through October 10th, 2023 (10:30am-11:30am)

Pemi-Baker Hospice and Home Health will be offering a grief support group, beginning on Tuesday, September 5, 2023.  This six week series will address the question “Is There Life After Loss?”  Although our lives do not go back to “the way things were” prior to our enduring a loss, life does move on and presents us with possibilities of creating a new mode of living for ourselves.

Grief is a universal emotion, and the process of healing is unique to each individual. The aim of this support group is to facilitate a safe and compassionate environment where participants can explore the myriad emotions associated with loss and discover pathways to a new, meaningful life. This program acknowledges that while life may not return to its pre-loss state, it does offer opportunities for renewal and growth.

We will examine how various steps along the way can help us to acquire the resiliency and energy to move forward on our life’s journey.  The loss is not restricted to the death of a loved one, but can include such things as loss of employment, relocation to an unfamiliar place, or the end of a relationship.

The group will be meeting in the upstairs art room at the Plymouth Regional Senior Center, beginning promptly at 10:30am on Tuesday, September 5, 2023.  The art room is accessible by elevator.  Please get a parking permit at the front desk.

The series goes for six sessions, ending on Tuesday, October 10, 2023. Sessions will take place weekly, allowing ample time for self-reflection and the gradual integration of newfound insights into daily life. Regardless of the type of loss experienced, attendees will find a welcoming and non-judgmental space to embark on their healing journey.

There is no cost to attend the group.  Pre-registration is required, by contacting Guy Tillson, Hospice Chaplain and Bereavement Coordinator, by email at gtillson@pbhha.org or by leaving a phone message at 603 536-2232.

The challenges of being an at-home caregiver (or even a long-distance one, as in the case of an adult child coordinating the care of a parent from some distance away) can be overwhelming, daunting, and exhausting. The experience naturally alters one’s freedom for social interaction beyond the home, and this reality was exacerbated as we lived through the height of the current pandemic. Although caregiving is an expression of love and concern, the constant vigilance required from the caregiver can be emotionally draining and the stress of it can have physical ramifications. Consequently, self-care is an important quality for caregivers to cultivate.

Connecting with other caregivers can help to lighten the emotional load imposed by this ever-increasing phenomenon that has become a part of contemporary American life as our population ages. We hope this gathering will allow for opportunities of sharing, brainstorming, problem-solving, and supportive listening.

The group will meet on the first Wednesday of each month at 10-11:30am. This group will meet in the Conference Room at PBH&HH. As they become available, relevant handouts and other materials will be offered.

You MUST pre-register in order to participate in this group.  Please do so at least 24 hours prior to the meeting date.  To register, please contact the facilitator, Guy Tillson, PBH&HH Hospice Spiritual Counselor and Bereavement Counselor, online via email at gtillson@pbhha.org or by phone at 603-536-2232.

If you would prefer to participate virtually by ZOOM, please indicate that, and we will attempt to accommodate you.  Group size is limited to five people, so registrations will be accepted on a “first come, first served” basis.
