Border Mountain
The most sensitive and effective support for those coping with hospice needs, grief, and personal loss, comes from professionals that have experienced those same circumstances. At Border Mountain, JoAnne Nowack has created intuitive, loving programs that speak to the hearts of anyone dealing with loss.

Hospice Volunteer Training; A series of seven videos with student manuals (in English and Spanish) and separate Instructors Guide. This thorough and professional program provides Medicare approved hospice training for your volunteers.

Grief and Bereavement Training; Four videos, student manuals (in English and Spanish) and Instructors Guide. This is an edited version of the Hospice training that specifically addresses helping with Grief and Bereavement processes. Appropriate for volunteers as well as for use in Grief therapy groups.

Deep hurts don’t just go away with time. Do you know someone who is hurting over the loss of a loved one as a result of death or divorce, or as a result of any other painful situation in their lives? It is likely that the hurting person is experiencing the results of “frozen grief” accumulated over a lifetime. Current losses often trigger old wounds that never had a chance to heal.

Our Mission Statement and Pledge: To provide a safe and nurturing environment to process personal loss and grief.
