The Continuum Hospice Bereavement Center is an integral part of Continuum Hospice Care. Staffed by highly qualified professionals, the Center provides an array of services to hospice families and the public. During the year following the death of a loved one, a range of emotions can be expected. The Center reaches out with a series of mailings that discuss such issues, offers informative workshops, makes individual counseling and support groups available, and maintains telephone contact with hundreds of people who take comfort in knowing that we are here. The Center serves people from the various communities and ethnic backgrounds that comprise New York City, and our outreach is sensitive to the emotional and spiritual issues of our divergent population without being faith-specific.
