Grief & Bereavement Support Services for Houston Families
Hospice and Grief
It’s not uncommon for the family of a hospice patient to begin grieving before the actual death and for the grief process to last longer than a few weeks or months after the death. It’s with this in mind that Accredited Hospices of America offers grief and bereavement support to Houston families while a patient is under our care and for up to 12 months following a death.
