In the meantime, please join us for our monthly lecture series.
Demystifying Death offers professionals and students an opportunity to learn about the basics of death and dying with the goal of becoming more informed and comfortable with end-of-life care. This class will engage the learner in applying concepts to their own lives as well as learning how to help others.
Peter Koestenbaum has written that, βDeath reveals us to ourselves as individuals and as finite.β Many believe that the more one accepts and understands their own death, the better they will be able to be compassionate when assisting others who are facing the end of life. As such, Demystifying Death aims to help attendees gain knowledge that will assist them in dealing with their own death.
Welcome Home of Chattanooga believes in and promotes service of love, compassion, and authenticity, bringing our true selves to the place of need.
