The Truth About Becoming a Certified Death Doula

There is a worldwide global movement going on and it is known as the Death Doula. Just like birthing doulas that care for and guide a baby into this world, there are now Death Doulas that are guiding people out of the world!

In this episode of Ask a Death Doula,

I will share with you the truth about becoming a Death Doula and what you need to know when deciding if this profession is the right path for you.

Death is having a rebirth! We have been dying for thousands of years. However, it is only in the last century that we have completely removed the natural life experience of death from our awareness. Death is not a medical experience - it is a human one. Hospice is a beautiful model of care, but unfortunately the present model of hospice has many “gaps” and is not working well for most patients and families. There is a need for additional support from trained and knowledgeable professionals in this space of end of life care.

 

In This Episode, You Will Learn: 

  1. What is a Death Doula?
  • The Death Doula Movement
  • What do Death Doulas Do?
  • Why Do We Need Death Doulas if We Have Hospice Care?
  • Does Hospice Approve of Death Doulas?
  • What Type of Holistic Support do Death Doulas Provide? 
  • How to Know if Being a Death Doula is Right for You? 
  • How to Pick The Best Training for You When Becoming a Death Doula
