Planning for end-of-life wishes and discussing them with loved ones can significantly ease the burden for both patients and their families. Recent data reveals that hospice workers may only be in a patient's home for a limited time each week, while caregiving is a round-the-clock commitment. This often leaves family members thrust into caregiver roles without adequate experience or training. There has never been a greater need for additional support in this vital area of care, and an end-of-life doula bridges this gap by offering continuous, non-medical guidance and comfort.
