Description:
The bereaved, who believe in God, often deny themselves the natural response to loss, grief. For others, the death of a loved one can prompt a deep crisis in faith. This presentation will help you-the professional caregiver-when faced with bereaved clients whose loss raises grief dilemmas. Professional caregivers who have a religious faith must suspend their own belief/faith assumptions to be of help, while those without a faith tradition must remain confident that they can be of help.

Objectives:

• Participants will be able to identify two ways that loss and grief affect mourners who have a religious faith.

•  Participants will be able to describe two changes in religious faith that can result from loss and grief.

• Participants will be able to identify healing interventions for religious patients experiencing loss and grief.
