Eight volunteers of Care Dimensions recently completed a bereavement training program for non-profit organizations. Care Dimensions used to be called Hospice of the North Shore & Greater Boston.

The training helped the volunteers to learn about pre-bereavement phone calls, peer support group facilitation and supporting the patient’s families. Prior to doing this special training, the volunteers completed a 16 hour training program that all Care Dimensions volunteers do. For anyone who is interested in being a volunteer, the next training session will be on February 11th from 9:30-11:30 am at the Kaplan Family Hospice House at 78 Liberty Street in Danvers. This program will run until April 1.
