EMBERHEALTH CONCIERGEAll services

Ember After

Practical help after a loss, so grief doesn’t have to handle the paperwork.

No referral fees, ever. Ember works for you and the people you choose to involve.

All support is provided remotely by phone or video. No home visits.

Who it’s for

Individuals, families, and loved ones facing the practical tasks that follow a death, including people handling those tasks on their own.

Your voice and choices

The person receiving support is at the center of the plan. We listen to their goals, help them express preferences and questions, and involve family members or loved ones with permission. When a representative is needed, their voice and preferences still matter and are included as fully as possible.

How our conversations work

The 90-minute session is a guided conversation about what has already been handled, what is urgent, which documents are available, and who can help. Follow-ups revisit the checklist and the tasks that remain.

Help with the unfamiliar calls and paperwork
  • Put notifications in a usable order, identify the contact information, and prepare what to ask before each call.
  • Separate final medical bills from insurance statements and flag entries that need clarification with the billing office.
  • Create a task list for the home, belongings, subscriptions, and pets, with a responsible person identified for each step.
  • Identify which questions belong with an attorney, tax professional, insurer, or benefits office so you do not have to guess.
