title: Establishing a bereavement service.
abstract: Susan Duke looks at research into the effects of bereavement and examines the interventions necessary for establishing the most helpful support service. Current research is limited, she says, and suggests that bereavement programmes should see research as an important component of their function. With the right preparation, existing staff can provide support without the need for bereavement specialists.
