Answer to Question 1

Answer: 1
Explanation: A support group can provide parents with the opportunity to connect with others who have experienced a similar loss. Although a brochure or a workshop might provide information that parents wants to know, a brochure does not provide emotional solace during the grieving process. A medication evaluation may not be indicated for every grieving parent.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 1, 2, 3, 5
Explanation: Support groups can give bereaved individuals the opportunity to connect with others and realize that they are not alone. They can provide information about the grieving process and other resources in the community. Support groups can help validate the emotions the bereaved is experiencing and provide members the chance to share their own stories in a supportive setting. There is no right way to grieve, and there are no directions on grieving.
