  a. The end of a group can stir up a lot of feelings, both good and bad. I'd like to hear from each of you about what the end of the group is stirring up in you..
  b. Sometimes the end of a group is welcome, other times regretted. What are people feeling as we wind down and face the end of the group?
  c. I've enjoyed the group and hope it has been helpful to you all. How about if today we focus on what everyone will be doing now that group is ending..
  d. The end of the group is upon us. I wish you all well and would appreciate it if everyone could take a moment to talk about what you have learned in group..

Answer to Question 1

A
Although during the termination phase, the leader should encourage members to set future goals and reflect on the progress each has made, the leader should also help members deal effectively with the feelings raised by the termination of the group. Asking each member to talk about what is stirred up by the end of the group both focuses on feelings and involves the quiet member as well as others (who are likely to be experiencing emotions of their own).

Answer to Question 2

A
Addiction is not an issue when care is provided for the terminally ill; the goal is to make the client comfortable and pain free.
