Bereavement Support

Hospice of Orleans offers grief support and counseling to anyone who has experienced a recent loss – regardless of any prior affiliation with hospice.

One-on-one Bereavement Counseling

Our specially trained bereavement counselors offer individual support for 13 months after a loss, or as long as needed.

The service includes personal visits, phone calls, and emails for ongoing support.

Bereavement Support Meetings

Face-to-face social support is important to give those who have experienced a loss the opportunity to lean on each other for comfort during a shared experience.


These meetings are open to anyone in the community, as well as to all of our Hospice families. Although registration is not required, please call 585-589-0809 ahead of time in case of inclement weather or scheduling conflicts to be sure the group will be meeting.
