Health care providers will encounter and experience grief throughout their personal and professional lives. People cope with grief differently. The magnitude of the loss, cultural and religious beliefs, one's coping skills and psychiatric history, the availability of support systems, and one's socioeconomic status can all affect how a person copes with grief.
