  • 1 person is interested

NOT ACTIVE DURING THE PANDEMIC. BUT IF YOU'RE STILL INTERESTED IN THIS OPPORTUNITY WHEN WE'RE ALL ALLOWED BACK INTO FACILITIES, PLEASE REACH OUT.
Make a positive difference in the life of an actively dying hospice patient! Brookdale Hospice would love to incorporate Certified End-of-Life Doulas (EOLDs) or those in the process of certification that want to gain more experience for their EOLD role! As a hospice team, we all understand the importance of a patient's quality of life and supporting an actively dying patient and their family! An EOLD volunteer would complement our team by providing even more emotional, thoughtful, proactive, and compassionate support for the patient and the patient's loved ones.

Brookdale Hospice provides the patient an individualized program of physical, emotional, and practical care with emphasis on pain control and symptom management. Our program is a reflection of our spirit of caring because we emphasize comfort, dignity, and respect. We believe that centering our focus on both the patient and the family enables us to provide the best care.
