The Role of the
End-of-Life Doula
It used to be that we took care of our dying family members at home. These skills were passed down from generation to generation.
Taking people out of the home and into the hospitals to die has caused us to lose our ownership over death.
The role of the end-of-life doula is to provide non-medical comfort measures to both the patient and their caregivers.
I offer a calming, supportive, non-judgmental presence during a time that can be quite stressful for families.
My name is Rebecca.
All people have the right to caring support as they embark on the singular journey of dying. As a trained death doula, I affirm dignity, educate on the dying process, and lovingly support those at end-of-life along with their caregivers. My goal is to walk alongside the family to create a sacred and beautiful rite of passage that honors a life well-lived.
