Custom grieving processes. Grief and Bereavement are highly individualized with Silver Crest – no two people experience these difficult emotions in the same way. Silver Crest Hospice will work diligently to provide you and your loved ones with the services you need exactly as you need them. We understand that grief and bereavement can begin even before a loved one has passed and can extend for quite some time after they have passed. A particular interest in attention and care during this time is something we consider vital. We offer grief and bereavement support to the families, friends, and staff while a patient is under our care and for up to 1+ years after your loved one has passed. We are also available long after to talk anytime during special anniversaries and birthdays that are understandably difficult to handle as well.
