Assignment 2

MODULE: IMMEDIATE NEEDS OF THE MOURNER

Supporting a mourner begins with psychological first aid designed to establish a sense of safety, determine social support, and foster hope. One of the primary ways we support those in mourning is through listening. Listening allows the mourner to articulate and express emotions, which helps them process their experience. Asking questions sets the stage for listening, and is a powerful way to invite the mourner to express themselves and find their own solutions.
