“The grief cycle model from Kubler Ross (1969) is a useful perspective for understanding our own and other people 's emotional reaction to personal trauma and change, irrespective of cause, “according to (Businessball,2016).

I also have regular supervision, where I can share my experience with my senior manager. My personal conclusion is that a professional must have a “healthy mind” to provide efficient support and care to the individual.
Over the last couple of years, a lot of changes have taken place regarding bereaved care. Policies have changed and the White paper (2011) outlined a new direction in End of Life
