END OF LIFE DOULA, CONSULTANT and EDUCATOR
Assisting in End of Life Decisions
Assisting in End of Life Decisions
Help me understand what’s important to you as you begin your journey towards envisioning a death on your own terms.
My mission is to advocate for Advance Care Planning,
educate on the role of End of Life Doulas,
and support individuals and families facing death.
My vision is a death literate community, better dying experiences for all, and for a Death Doula to be included as part of the end of life planning team.
My purpose is to take the stress out of death for the dying person and family caregiver. I do this with an abundance of love, wisdom and comfort.
My name is Lesley James, the Founder of Last Wishes Consulting and also:
End of Life Doulas empower and educate people and their loved ones to be involved in making decisions. The word "doula" is Greek for servant or helper. Similar to a birth doula who supports women during the labour process, an End of Life Doula (or Death Doula) supports a person during the dying process. Having a conversation or making an advance care plan when you are healthy, is encouraged by doulas so that the care received at the end of life is appropriate and aligned with your last wishes.
