TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR SERVICES

As a doula, I can provide non-medical support to the dying and the family and help them navigate the final phase of their life.

​

This can include advance directives, ethical will, legacy project, respite care, vigil planning, sitting vigil bedside, and bereavement.

Advance Directives- documenting your wishes for your family and health care team, if you want medical intervention, CPR, nutrition, etc.

​

Ethical Will- This is not a legal document but to document family history, life lessons, and achievements, family stories, values, beliefs, etc.

​

Legacy Project- This can be as simple as writing letters to your loved ones to read once you are gone, organizing photos, or filming a video journal.

​

Respite Care- Giving the caregivers a chance to refresh, run errands, etc., I will sit at the bedside with their loved one or helping to organize outside caregivers.

​

Vigil Planning- a road map on how you want your final days to look and feel. Including pain management, visitors, sounds, smells, things that will bring you comfort. Religious or spiritual values honored 

​

The Vigil- supporting the person and family emotionally and physically keeping them comfortable and pain-free as possible as the body transitions from life to death and providing aftercare for the body.

​

Bereavement- Checking in with the family in the following weeks after the death to lend a compassionate ear and open heart.
