Chaplains, social workers, and bereavement counselors who walk alongside your family — through the questions, the silences, and the year that follows. Every faith, no faith, all welcome.
Three roles, three different jobs. A chaplain for the spiritual side. A social worker for the emotional and practical side. A bereavement coordinator for the year that follows.
Bluebird chaplains are trained in interfaith spiritual care. They sit with whatever your family carries — prayer, ritual, doubt, anger, gratitude, or silence. No prescription, no proselytizing. Visits happen as the family wishes.
Licensed clinical social workers handle family counseling, advance directives, paperwork, durable medical equipment, financial questions, and the practical scaffolding around a hospice stay. Bi-weekly visits, plus as needed.
Bluebird's bereavement program continues for 13 months after a loss. Phone calls, mailings, support groups, and one-on-one counseling — covered by the Medicare hospice benefit and yours to use as much or as little as feels right.
Bluebird chaplains are trained in interfaith care. The job is to listen for what's already in the room — to meet your family inside the tradition you carry, or the one you've left, or the place where you've never had one. Whatever you bring, our chaplains have sat with it before.
Some of these are scheduled visits. Some happen on call when a family needs them. All are covered by the Medicare hospice benefit.
Quiet presence, prayer if welcome, conversation, ritual — whatever the moment asks for.
Difficult conversations, family meetings, sibling reconciliation, naming what's hard to name.
What matters most? What does a "good day" look like? Translating those into a written plan.
Recorded memories, letters to grandchildren, family recipes, photo albums — preserved for after.
Communion, anointing, prayer at end-of-life, vigil presence — coordinated with your clergy when desired.
Phone calls, mailings, groups, and one-on-one counseling for the family after a loss.
Spouses, adult children, siblings, grandchildren — this is your hospice too. Our social workers and chaplains are here for you, not just the patient.
Caregiving is one of the most rewarding jobs on the planet. It can also be one of the most exhausting. Often the Caregiver forgets to take time to care for themselves. We can help.
Whether your loved one is asking the questions you don't know how to answer — or you are — our team is here. No commitment, no enrollment required, no judgment.
