The End-of-Life Doula You Can Depend On
Serenity End of Life Doula's mission is to raise awareness about end of life care, provide end of life education and resources, and assist with coordination of end of life support services in the Black and underserved communities.
Helping You and Your Loved One Find Serenity and Comfort
at the End of Life
What is an End-of-Life Doula?
The National End of Life Doula Alliance defines End-of-Life Doulas (EOLD) as those who “provide non-medical, holistic care and support to the dying person and their family which may include education and guidance as well as emotional, spiritual, and practical care from early diagnosis through bereavement.”
​
When faced with a chronic illness or a terminal diagnosis, conversations about death and end-of-life care can be difficult. However, talking about these issues is necessary to make sure that you or your loved one will live with dignity and respect
in the final days.
​
Serenity's goal is to help facilitate those hard conversations that are needed, to
ensure that you and your loved one's end of life is one of dignity and respect .
​
Improve the quality of your life and your loved one's with help from Serenity.
