WEBINAR DETAILS

Part 5 of this five-part compliance series will review the CoP requirement for bereavement counseling as a core hospice service. It will cover key regulations for bereavement care and provide recommendations for best and preferred practices and program structure. Who is qualified to provide these services? Who will receive these services?
Setting up a bereavement plan of care as well as how to implement and measure your bereavement program for effectiveness will be addressed. Bereavement care is not just something a hospice agency implements upon death. It requires ongoing assessments, and many agencies fall short.
