SERVICES:
MY LOVED ONE HAS DEMENTIA
and I need support
I absolutely love working with people with dementia. I’ve worked with people at all stages of Alzheimer’s, Primary Progressive Aphasia, and Lewy Body Dementia, and loved (almost) every minute of it.
My dementia support mainly consists of companion care and assistance with daily activities, either at home or in a facility, to provide respite for caregivers.Dementia Care priorities:
• Maximize dignity, independence, quality of life, and fun!
• Personal engagement to keep the mind and body active
• Reduce caregiver burnout and fatigue
MY LOVED ONE IS DYING
and I need support
My goal is to make the experience of dying as peaceful and as full of joyful experiences as possible. I bring calm, compassionate, non-judgmental support to patients and their caregivers as we navigate the complicated, stressful details surrounding the end of life process.Available services:
• Help create an End of Life Living Plan that honors my client’s choices and values
• Assist with the creation of Advance Directives
• Guide loved ones through the stages of the dying process
• Bedside vigil support
• Assist in creating meaningful, personalized Celebration of Life & Memorial Services
• Create Legacy Projects
ADVANCE LIFE PLANNING
for yourself or your family
I believe the two most important questions in Advance Planning are:
1 ) How can I make sure that my healthcare choices and values are honored if I become incapacitated?
2 ) If I died or became incapacitated tomorrow, would I be leaving my loved ones an organized plan, or a scavenger hunt for important information?We work together to create:
• Advance Healthcare Directives
• Dementia Care Directives
• Medical Power of Attorney
• Durable Financial Power of Attorney
• Continuity of Life package I can refer you to trusted professionals for more complex documents. This can be a standalone project, or be a part of Caregiving, as time and circumstances allow.
PRICING:
Doula services are not covered by insurance or Medicare.
The pricing is simple:
