Just as doulas exist to welcome people into life through birth, end of life doulas accompany the dying and their family during the final stages of life. Doulas provide support, education, resources, and companionship to those who are entering the journey into death. Volunteers who spend their time in this role need to understand how to best support the dying and their families.
Ascend Hospice end of life doula program is made possible by volunteers who receive comprehensive holistic training. Our program helps provide the tools necessary to teach the doula how to provide support and guidance to people during their end of life journey.
If you’re interested in becoming an end of life doula, and want to find out more about our volunteer program please contact Jordan Palmer via email at Jordan.palmer@ascendhealth.com or call on 816-859-2343
