“Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone".​ - Fred Rogers

Frequently Asked  Questions

How is an End-of-Life Doula Different from Hospice?

Every person and family who is going through the end of life and terminal disease should contact their local hospice as soon as possible. It is your choice though, and we are happy to answer any questions you may have about hospice.​Although the nursing and physician care provided by hospice teams is not replaced by our doula services, we complement them perfectly. Beyond what hospice is often able to provide owing to Medicare limits, doulas can provide more time, more individualized attention, more continuity at the bedside, more advocacy, and more availability. My intensive training goes beyond what hospice volunteer organizations offer since volunteers have to follow guidelines set forth by the insurance and hospice.​We are trained to deal with strong and challenging emotions; as Doulas we have received training and practice. We provide full-time presence and companionship at the vigil and at death, and most importantly, consistent relationships with my clients. We customize end-of-life care plans for spiritual, physical, practical, and life review needs.

Do I need an End-of-Life Doula?

Yes, everyone should have a doula! We am a professionally trained End of Life Doula who is ready to provide you with resources and walk you through this process. You may be feeling overwhelmed and grieving at the same time. We are here to bring a calming and reassuring presence with the expertise of the death process. We provide a wide range of services to help with the process of dying, but our main role is to be a steady and reassuring presence during a very difficult time.

When Should I Contact an EOLD?

You can get in touch with an End of Life Doula at any point during the end of life process or even before a terminal diagnosis. The more time that can be spent getting to know the person and family, working through and completing your advanced directive, developing quality care plans, prioritizing end-of-life needs, and establishing sacred space and meaning for the person and family, the earlier the doula can get involved in the process, the better.
