AbstractDeath and bereavement are often poorly dealt with in emergency departments. Guidelines exist for optimal care of bereaved relatives. Establishing a limited bereavement program in a busy emergency department is quite feasible. Bereaved relatives appreciate a more "human" approach from hospital staff. Ultimately hospital staff also benefit from confronting issues surrounding death in the emergency department.
