"One Size Doesn't Fit All" - , an Individualized Approach to Bereavement Intervention.

We concluded in a recent study that a "one size fits all" approach typical of group interventions often does not adequately accommodate the range of situations, life experiences, and current needs of participants. We describe how this limitation informed the design and implementation of an individually-delivered intervention format more specifically tailored to the unique needs of each bereaved person. The intervention comprises one of three interrelated studies within (PHC), which examines the trajectory from end-of-life care through bereavement among cancer caregivers using hospice.
