What a Virtual End-of-Life Doula Can Do:
A virtual end-of-life doula provides the same compassionate support and guidance as an in-person doula but through online or phone-based communication. With modern technology, avirtual doula can connect with individuals and their families, no matter where they are located,offering continuous support during the end-of-life journey.
A virtual end-of-life doula can bridge the gap when in-person support isn’t possible, offering the same compassionate, knowledgeable care through accessible technology. Whether it’s guiding through the planning process or offering comfort during difficult moments, a virtual doula provides essential support to ensure that the end-of-life experience is filled with love, peace, and dignity.
