**Trigger Warning**

Jo McNamara and Naman Julka-Anderson catch up with Steve Bland as part of the Living With and Beyond Cancer series (Part 3).

To use this podcast as CPD, look at these reflection points: 

1) How could you help support someone going through grief and bereavement?

2) Reflect upon how you engage with a patient's carers and family during treatment.

3) What bereavement and grief counseling support is available in your department? Do you know how to sign post patients to these if they need your help?
