The End-of-Life Doula Program is a premium service that provides the following:
- Care for your high need patients and families.
- Support for those with high bereavement risks.
- Help meeting your volunteer hours.
- An excellent resource for pre-hospice community support.
- An excellent source of hospice referrals - if used as palliative companions in the pre-hospice time period.
- Bridge that awkward transition (for many people) from the pre to post death time period when many feel abandoned by hospice.
Together we will create a program that will increase the ability of your organization to properly care for your clients and patients. It will add to your volunteer hours, increase family satisfaction, establish you as an innovator leader in your local community, and enhance key relationships in your community.
