The public will have the opportunity to view it this summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saum said the memorial service includes reflections from CHP Hospice nurses, social workers, and staff; music by the CHP Hospice musician and a patient family member; and messages of hope and encouragement from CHP Hospice chaplains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CHP also offers monthly bereavement support groups to promote healing following a loss. The groups are free and open to the bereaved regardless if their loved one used CHP services or not.
