At the Bedside; an introduction to becoming an end-of-life doula
What is an end-of-life doula?
Please join me for a three-hour workshop where I will share about the heart and philosophy of the doula, as well as the comfort they bring to someone who is dying, and someone who is preparing to say goodbye.
I will hand over my tools to help you choreograph the journey from diagnosis to death for someone who is dying.
In this class we will cover the following:
What is a doula?
Getting the conversation started with patient and family
Signs and symptoms of death approaching
Non-clinical ways to provide support, relief and comfort
Honoring their wishes
Self care
Grief
My book "At the Bedside" is not required for this course but would be an excellent book for you to have.
This class will not certify you to become a doula but it will give you bedside tools, and I will provide you with references for doula programs that I highly respect.
Note: This class pairs nicely with my Best Three Months course.
