DESCRIPTION: This session is an essential annual course for those who care for parents at the bedside when a baby dies. Perfect for nurses, doulas, doctors and midwives who are there when a family learns of a baby's death, and who must then coach them through the process of delivery, time together, and saying goodbye. This longer course includes a parent panel.
McMurrich’s professional trainings are designed with nurses and OBGYNs on the front lines and are based on her extensive training with the Perinatal Loss and Infant Death Alliance, Share, Pregnancy and Infant Loss, Inc, her own research, and her thirteen years of work with hundreds of bereaved families across Western Massachusetts and beyond.
