Why Talk to Dyingyourway’s Certified Doulas?
An advocate, coach, non-medical assistant who will support patients and families with the transitions, challenges and opportunities that happen at the end of life. Certified doulas who are specifically trained in end of life care offer many services which include identifying gaps in service and empowering patients to articulate their end of life wishes.
Taking the next step to ask a stranger for advice can be tentative for many obvious reasons.
Keep in mind two things:
1. You will be speaking with a certified End of Life Doula trained in all situations pertaining to your issue.
2. You are under no obligation.
The 30 minute call changes the outlook for many clients. It replaces confusion with clarified possibilities. You will know your best next step. You will feel heard.
