“Many people dread growing older based on assumptions they have about aging.

As we age and find ourselves spending time with older adults, it is important to understand what is typical and not typical with aging, as well as the positive aspects of aging.

In fact, research shows that you can help preserve your health and cultivate happiness by engaging in healthy habits and lifestyle choices.”

Navigating the final stages of life can be a challenging and emotional journey for individuals and their families.

Understanding the roles of various care providers is essential in ensuring a dignified and peaceful end-of-life experience.

Two key providers in this realm are end-of-life doulas and hospice services, each offering distinct types of support.

While both play crucial roles in end-of-life care, they differ significantly in their scope, services, professional roles, duration of involvement, and payment structures.

Exploring these differences can help families make informed decisions about the best care options for their loved ones.

In summary, end-of-life doulas and hospice services each bring unique and valuable contributions to end-of-life care.

End-of-life doulas focus on non-medical, holistic support, providing emotional, spiritual, and practical assistance to both the dying and their loved ones.

In contrast, hospice services offer comprehensive medical care, pain management, and symptom control, supported by a team of healthcare professionals.

By understanding these differences, individuals and families can choose the most appropriate care to ensure a compassionate and respectful end-of-life experience.

At Sage Solutions, we have staff members who are trained end-of-life doulas, offering understanding and “Sage” advice at life’s most tender times.

Choosing an end-of-life doula is often driven by deeply personal and emotional reasons that go beyond practical needs.

For many, the presence of a doula provides a comforting, compassionate companion who can ease the emotional burden of dying.

This support can be invaluable for individuals who fear facing death alone or feel overwhelmed by the emotional and existential aspects of their final days.

An end-of-life doula offers a safe, non-judgmental space to express fears, hopes, and unresolved feelings, helping the dying person find peace and acceptance.
Families, too, benefit emotionally from the presence of a doula. As they navigate their own grief and the complexities of saying goodbye, a doula provides consistent support, guidance, and a calming presence.

This can alleviate the strain on family members, allowing them to focus on cherishing their remaining time with their loved one.

The doula’s involvement in legacy projects and life review conversations can also help create meaningful memories, providing a sense of closure and continuity that can be deeply comforting.

Overall, the emotional support and personalized care provided by an end-of-life doula can transform the dying process into a more intimate, peaceful, and meaningful experience for everyone involved.

At Sage Solutions, we have staff members who are trained end-of-life doulas, offering compassion, understanding, and “Sage” advice at life’s most tender times.

An end-of-life doula, also known as a death doula or death midwife, provides non-medical, holistic support to individuals and their families during the final stages of life.

Here are the five main roles they typically fulfill:

💚Emotional Support

End-of-life doulas offer compassionate companionship and emotional support to both the dying person and their loved ones.

They provide a safe space for expressing fears, concerns, and feelings about death and dying, helping to alleviate anxiety and stress during this difficult time.

💚Practical Assistance

Doulas assist with practical matters, such as helping with advance care planning, organizing important documents, and coordinating care with other professionals like hospice workers.

They might also help with household tasks, transportation, or arranging for services like meals or home care.

💚Education and Advocacy

They educate families about the dying process, what to expect, and how to provide care.

This includes explaining medical procedures, symptom management, and legal rights.

Doulas also advocate for the wishes of the dying person, ensuring their preferences for end-of-life care are respected and followed.

💚Vigil and Presence

End-of-life doulas can provide continuous support during the active dying phase, often staying with the person to offer comfort and ensure they do not die alone.

This vigil support can include physical presence, holding hands, playing soothing music, or simply being there silently.

💚Legacy and Life Review

Doulas assist in creating a meaningful closure for the dying person and their family.

This can involve facilitating life review conversations, helping to record personal stories, creating memory books, or organizing legacy projects that reflect the individual’s life and values.

By fulfilling these roles, end-of-life doulas help to create a more dignified, peaceful, and personalized experience for those approaching the end of life, and provide much-needed support to their loved ones.

Helping your aging parents is challenging, but you don’t have to go through it alone.

Care managers are qualified professionals who can make this process easier.
We assess the needs of aging parents and create personalized care plans, coordinating medical care, daily activities, finances, and emotional support.

By working closely with families, care managers provide guidance, information, and advocacy ~ easing the burden on caregivers and adult children who are assisting their aging parents.

We have access to a network of resources and services, including home health care, assisted living facilities, financial planning, and legal services.

With the assistance of a care manager, you can focus on cherishing your time together and creating meaningful memories, rather than feeling overwhelmed by the responsibilities of managing care.

Aging Life Care management is a holistic, client-centered approach to planning with and caring for aging adults, dependent adults, or others facing ongoing health or disability challenges.

As experts in aging well®, Aging Life Care Managers® help older adults navigate the challenges of aging and make positive, informed decisions and plans.

Our guidance leads people to the actions and decisions that ensure quality care and an optimal life for themselves or those they love, thus reducing worry, stress, and time off of work for family caregivers through:

• Assessment and monitoring
• Planning and problem-solving
• Education and advocacy
• Family caregiver coaching

At Sage Solutions, we offer Care Management services that provide advice and direction on navigating life’s challenges as we age.

We work directly with older adults and their families to develop a plan that addresses each family’s specific needs.

Our work begins with an assessment of the older adult, their current living environment, as well as their health status.

We then develop both recommendations and a strategy focused on how best to meet their changing needs.

This can often include assembling resources to maintain independence as long as possible, a Home Safety Assessment, coordination with adult children or other family members living at a distance, and assistance with financial considerations.

We view the situation from a bird’s eye view, seeing the gaps and then providing thoughtful, intelligent, compassionate solutions and recommendations.

We offer both virtual and in-person support; send us a message today to see how we can help you or your loved one in this journey.

A care manager will routinely ask clients and/or their families if they have their “legal documents in place.”

If they do not, we will refer them to vetted law firms that can help them establish a power of attorney, healthcare directives, etc.

These documents are especially important when someone is showing signs of memory loss.

It is essential that their wishes are known and documented so they may be carried out in the event the individual cannot speak for themselves down the road.

We can coordinate with attorneys, ensuring all necessary documents are in place, thereby reducing one of the many stressors family caregivers often face.
