Show Notes

Diane Button started the End of Life Doula Alliance of Marin County in Northern California to combine areas of expertise in end of life care with regional doulas. Button completed  UVM's End-of-Life Doula Professional Certificate program in March of 2019. She feels as though we all have been given a diagnosis to pause and reflect during the Coronavirus quarantine. 

In this episode of End of Life Care from a Distance, Button talks about the changes she has made to continue to support clients and families at end of life from a distance. 

End-of-Life Doulas complement the care provided by family members and friends, as well as medical, palliative, and hospice professionals, within the settings of hospitals, senior care facilities, and homes.
