After Hearing from Hundreds...
Conversations with bereaved families revealed that our experiences of reproductive loss are far from unique. Each story offered insight into what compassionate care should—and should not—look like. From delivering the devastating news of “no heartbeat” to supporting families after a loss, healthcare professionals play a vital role in how grief is experienced and remembered.
This raises a critical question: How can we provide care that is both clinically excellent and emotionally attuned to the needs of grieving families?
That's where we come in.
Compassionate Care for Reproductive Grief is a specialized training designed to equip healthcare professionals with the empathy, insight, and communication skills essential for supporting patients through pregnancy and infant loss. Taught by bereaved mothers with firsthand experience and a deep understanding of grief’s complexities, this course offers invaluable perspectives on the emotional, psychological, and physical impact of loss. Participants will gain the tools to elevate their standard of care, ensuring that no family walks through grief without compassionate, competent support.
