Denise Brady

Bereavement

Denise Brady is librarian at St Christopher’s Hospice and has built up a database of over 14,000 items (books, journals, pamphlets and internet resources) on all aspects of palliative care, death, dying and bereavement.

This blog is intended to provide people with information on significant publications in the field of bereavement. 

The first post in 2005 details articles on a survey of adult bereavement services in  the UK.  

In November  2008 you will find details of a special issue of the journal Grief Matters on significant research on bereavement at that time. 

The most recent post includes a reference to a systematic review of bereavement services that was commissioned by the Dept of Health in the UK. 

The library at St Christopher's has about 2,000 other items on various aspects of bereavement and loss. 

Information on the 2,000 items on bereavement, loss and grief on the library database at St Christopher’s - and items on bereavement available for sale - can be obtained by contacting Denise.
