Description
Many healthcare professionals have to deal with the shock, reactions and emotional aftermath of people facing the sudden death of someone close to them. Knowing how to help, what to say or do, needs learned skills, self-knowledge and support for both the professional and the client. This book deals directly with these issues. In the second edition Bob Wright, an internationally acclaimed expert in exactly this type of care, builds on the strengths of the first edition. New practical approaches and exercises have been added to the text, as have chapters dealing with children and children's experiences.
