Description: This event is a FREE virtual Compassionate Care Workshop hosted by the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre.
The workshop runs from 9:00 am – 4:00 pm with a 1-hour break from 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm.
Participants leave with practical skills, tools and techniques to support bereaved parents and families. The workshop covers many topics including statistics, attachment, grief, memory making, what to say/what not to say, pregnancy after loss, caring for the caregiver, and family-centred care. We also invite a panel of people who have had a lived experience of loss answer questions and also share what it means to receive compassionate care.
