About this course
The loss of a child can present many emotional challenges for parents given an underlying assumption that parents will not outlive their offspring. The death of a child may impact the psychological morbidity and overall health of remaining family members. Given their proximity to such events, health care professionals are in a unique position to provide support and facilitate the bereavement process of parents. This course examines parental bereavement patterns based upon the type of loss as well as predictors of complicated parental bereavement. The role of mental health care professionals in supporting parents is illustrated through review of bereavement follow-up and intervention programs. In addition, specific applications of bereavement intervention strategies, along with case examples, are examined.
