Aftercare: Kübler-Ross for Bereavement Follow-Up

Stay with families after the service, when grief often deepens and others step away. Learn how Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's work can guide every follow-up call, remembrance event, and conversation at the graveside.

What you'll get:

• Understand what families live through after the funeral, and why grief responses are not a ladder or a timeline
• Recognize unfinished business and the symbolic language survivors use when they can't say things directly
• Use Elisabeth's Four Quadrants to see the physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual needs of a grieving family
• Practical words for follow-up calls: what helps, what hurts, and how to repair a mistake
• Design follow-up around the real calendar of grief, and build remembrance programs that welcome every faith and tradition
• Know when to refer, how to respond to warning signs, why aftercare is never sales, and how to care for yourself in this work
• 8 modules, 34 lessons, follow-up call scenarios, a final essay, and a certificate of completion
