They will give a brief history of the death doula movement and discuss where it is headed in the future, then answer questions from the participants.

Thanks for keeping this presentation up here! It's 2024 now and I'm finding it so valuable. I am a retired RN, very comfortable with navigating the health care system and advocating for patients/family. This is what I have done for my own family and want to help others in this part of life's journey.
I’ve been doing this for 17 years, I’d never heard of this being an actual thing! I called my self a gate keeper. Wow! Amazing 🙏🏻🌹
When I was a super young nursing student I got to hear Elizabeth Kubler Ross speak. My soul was forever changed. I’ve been an RN for 43 years and I think this might be what my calling is now!!
Kimberly gets it!! It is SO refreshing to find someone who understands govt regulations often greatly hinder care!!!! The truth is though, as soon as Medicare touches it, it gets regulated.
Exactly!!! I'm a nurse and my dream is to open a Hospice House (something we don't have in my area) and I am unable to do it because Medicare only pays $150/day for hospice and there is no way that is sustainable for anyone unfortunately! It breaks my heart because people around here don't have options
@@kimscott5683 you know how I'm able to afford a wonderful hormone specialist? He doesn't take insurance. He has excellent reviews, wonderful bedside manner & his prices are very affordable. Least about of govt possible, no insurance, less cost.
Greetings from Cashel Co Tipperary Ireland 🇮🇪. I'm so delighted to have found this site. I'm excited to join and learn.
My name is Kym C. & I just finished caring for a man named Paul. I am truly grateful for this video.
Thank you for commenting, Kim! We're happy our resource was helpful for you.
thank you so much, so true, I am a death doula who was a health care aid. I agree with you, love you for your honesty
Kimberly, you were speaking my language. I have been a hospice, RN for 25 years it’s not like it used to be and I am now stepping into the death Doula role.
I just ran in to this. I am a retired RN with home care, hospice care and psych experience. I get it all about what your talking about. I am wondering how I could get certification and open a business in NYS.
You ladies are amazing! I admire and respect what you do!
Grateful for this conversation. Thank you
I love you ladies y’all are amazing
I am starting this in Kenya.....long process but we will get there
Best of luck to you!
Thank you so much for this!!
My eyes are wide open. I am looking for more information.
We think this article may be a good start! www.betterplaceforests.com/blog/articles/death-doulas-guiding-people-through-lifes-final-transition
check out final passages. the founder Jerrigrace Lyons.She has an excillent teaching course. Also a non profit for information.
I am an RN who works in the disease care system. I am drawn to this work, just wondering if there's value in being able to do both the medical and death doula roles. I would have to work under a doctor if I do anything medical, correct? Having my own practice and focusing more on the spiritual and less medical does appeal to me.
We are sure there would be a lot of value in doing both medical and death doula roles. A recent NPHI survey found that less than 20% of patients have discussed their end-of-life wishes with their physicians. There is room for improvement here.
Here's a link to that survey's results in case you're interested: www.hospiceinnovations.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/NPHI-Survey-Views-and-Experiences-of-Aging-End-of-Life-Care-in-the-US.pdf
To answer your question- as an RN you likely would have to work under a doctor if you are doing anything medical; you are correct.
Thank you for your response!
@@HospiCorporation Thank you!
Kimberly mentioned a friend who trains people and teaches how to be paid as a death doula.
