About Windmills - Acute Bereavement Support for Children & Young people in Staffordshire
Windmills’ specialist acute bereavement nurses work one-to-one with the bereaved child and their family and helps them turn the anger, trauma and negativity around, shaping death’s sudden arrival into a positive, managed and contained acceptance of death’s inevitability and the building of sustaining and fulfilling fond memory mementos. Death is a reality we all face and which cannot be avoided, and for young people in Windmills care it can be resolutely faced, its emotions controlled and managed, and its impact greatly appeased.
Windmills’ nurses will often be the first ones to share with the child the news about the death, or its imminence. The nurses provide a caring, empathetic and expert support to the child and will help guide them through all the confusions and emotions that news of a loved-ones death will inevitably bring. Each child is given the time and care they need to help begin to come to terms and an understanding of the impact that death brings to their lives. For some children this will be a few sessions, for others it will be many sessions over a longer period.
