Compassionate Support Every Step of the Way
End of Life Care, After-Loss, and Grief Support Services...
My goal is to provide comprehensive care for end of life, after a loss, and during grief by offering clear guidance, compassionate presence and steady support. I emphasize planning in my service model. There is evidence suggesting that people who prepare for difficult life events, particularly death and it's aftermath, have a better experience than those who do no planning. Those who receive support report higher satisfaction than those who go it alone.
"I choose to make friends with death, dress it in something more comfortable than basic black. Sometimes I think of it not as a single entity, but as a band of angels, dressed in soft shades of blue and white."
- Patti Davis, The Long Goodbye

Limits To What I Do:
-
Provide hands-on medical care: I offer companionship and support, but not home health care. Home health aides are better suited for those needs.
-
Make medical decisions: I will educate you and your loved ones about end-of-life options, but all decisions remain with the patient, loved ones, and your medical team.
-
Give medical advice or medication: I will share information to help you understand what to expect at end of life. Because I am not a medical professional, I do not offer medical advice or administer medication.
-
Project personal beliefs: I will provide a safe and supportive environment, respecting your individual beliefs and values. I do not project my beliefs or values onto my clients.
