Hopewell House is the only 12-bed residential care facility dedicated to end-of-life located in Southwest Portland. It operates using an innovative collaborative model that keeps costs down unlike a hospital.

Residents at Hopewell House have private rooms with outdoor views and include our expert clinical staff who work with hospice teams to provide around-the-clock care for each resident, allowing loved ones and visitors to relax and focus on time together in a peaceful setting.

#GriefJourney

What is #mourning? What is #grieving? What is the difference between the two?

Many have used these concepts, experiences, interchangeably. But each has its own meaning.

To grieve is the inward experience—what we think and feel—after a loss. Mourning is the outward expression of our grief. Mourning can take the form of customs or rituals that help you actively move through the grief.

The difference between the two is subtle, but its purpose and how each can affect how we experience loss us is huge.

Here at Hopewell House, we have our walkouts as a mourning ritual. Our walkouts are always optional for our residents and their loved ones. And when we do have a walkout it is a moment for everyone in the house, including the resident’s loved ones, staff, volunteers, guests, even other residents to join and mourn the passing of a member of our Hopewell #community.

It’s our special way to mourn.

What are, or have been, some of your mourning, or grief, rituals?

Share them below with the Hopewell community.

MONTHLY GRIEF RITUAL

At Hopewell House
Facilitated by Brooke Lesley & Ashlie Hempstead

Grief Ritual is the practice of metabolizing individual and collective grief in the circle of community.

In the Western Hemisphere, many of us learned to grieve alone, or to distance ourselves from our grief because the pain is too great.

Grief Ritual is an opportunity to deepen our relationship with our grief, witness and honor others’ grief, and cultivate a sense of resilience and belonging.

All shapes of grief belong.

All community members are welcome.

When: Every Third Monday
Where: Hopewell House
Time: 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

No RSVP needed No cost to attend.

Come As You Are.
