Langley Hospice Society
A Practical Guide for Families
Death is the final stage of life. Recent or impending death can
create major change in a person's lifestyle. Not only will you be dealing
with your own emotional turmoil and grief, you will also be dealing with
practical concerns such as home care, wills of estate, living wills, funeral
plans, finances, insurance, and so forth. This booklet (see link to PDF
file below) offers practical information to dying and bereaved people and
their families.
This publication is only one of the resources that the Langley
Hospice Society provides to the community. Society volunteers also meet
with grieving and palliative people on a one-to-one basis at home and at the
hospital. Loss support groups allow grieving people to talk about their
feelings and experiences in a secure environment. The Society maintains a
lending library. For more information on this booklet, or any of our
services, please call the Langley Hospice Society at 604-530-1115.
