The Grief Journey

If you are stumbling anywhere in your grief journey, grief support is available to you.  The Grief Support Group is a community-wide service offered through Chisholm Trail Hospice, as service of Duncan Regional Hospital.  It is open to anyone, not just hospice families.  The group is informal, meeting over the lunch hour, and participants are welcome to bring lunch.

You can attend regularly or on a drop-in basis.  It can be used to address grief from a loss that is recent, from long ago, or that you expect in the near future.  This loss could be related to the death of a loved one, a friend or relative facing terminal illness, having a loved one placed in a nursing home, or any other major life change.

Selda Stewart, LSW, hospice social worker, and Glenn McGee, MA, hospice chaplain, facilitate the group.  They understand grief and loss and want to help.  The team can offer valuable resources to help you understand your grieving process.  Other participants who are on their grief journey can offer concern and support as well.

The Grief Support Group meets the 4th Thursday of each month, from Noon to 1 p.m. at the Chisholm Trail Hospice Conference Room at 2000 West Elk.  There will be no meeting in the months November and December.  This group is free, and it is open to the public.  Call 580-251-8764 or email hospice@duncanregional.com for more information.
