In Difficult Cases, ‘Families Cannot Manage Death at Home’

As a Death Doula/Midwife, I want to share with individuals and families about varying options at End-of-Life.

So many individuals wish to die and home, with their loved ones near them and the comfort of their home.  However, it is not always possible, and for some, it is too difficult to honor these wishes.

When making these kind of decisions, it is important for all concerned to speak compassionately and openly about the opportunities and challenges that may lie ahead, and be honest about the care that is needed.

Hospice can help to support the families, along with additional support of a Death Doula/Midwife.

It is important that the individual and their support interview hospices and doulas.  Continue to interview until you find the one that fit your needs.
