Support for Serious Illness and End of Life
Providing Compassionate Support for Those Facing Serious Illness or End of Life
Throughout the journey of serious illness, aging, or end of life we provide non-medical companionship using the doula model of care. Our Serious Illness Companions and End-of-Life Doulas arrive with an open heart and beginner's mind. We meet families where they are with emotional, spiritual, and logistical support, complementing medical professionals to deliver holistic care.

Our Serious Illness Companions and End-of-Life Doulas all undergo an industry-standard background check. Beyond our in-house training for Serious Illness Companionship, we require that they be trained by a reputable doula education organization, which is usually the University of Vermont or the International End of Life Doula Association (INELDA). Additionally, we maintain relationships with the Center to Advance Palliative Care (CAPC) to offer palliative courses to our doulas.
