Saint Barnabas Hospice Offers Bereavement Services

“Grieving is a process that has no time table,” says Judith Zucker, LCSW, Bereavement Coordinator for the Saint Barnabas Hospice and Palliative Care Center in West Orange, an affiliate of the Saint Barnabas Health Care System.  “Each of us mourns differently and at different rates.  It is important to be aware of how grieving is impacting your daily life.  At some point it may be helpful to seek bereavement counseling for assistance.”
