by Suzanne Bobrien Doulagivers -end of life doula trainings

The most difficult period that somebody has to endure is the time when you or a close family member is about to die. Most people find this time to be a very difficult period. The thought of leaving your children, family, relatives and friends is frightening. You always get anxious about what the people you leave behind will do without you.

It is also a difficult and trying time for the family members, knowing they are about to lose a member of the family, especially if the person has been sick for a long time. They may not know what to say or what to do to ease the pain. This is when the training comes in handy as it will teach you how to care for the sick, what to tell them and prepare them to face the last moments of their lives bravely.

End of Life care Training is vital for any caregiver. This training is for health aides, nurses, spiritual leaders and anyone who feels that this is what they really want to do. This is because it is a practical hand on education that gives you the knowledge on how to support your loved one at the end of life. The family members are taught how to care for the person who is dying and ensure that the patient is surrounded with loving and understanding people.

There are different levels of training involved when it comes to End of Life Doula training. You can choose the level that suits you best. Basically the first level is for all caregivers who are willing to take the lessons. Other levels may need interview application and the people who qualify are those who work in healthcare facilities. The number of those who qualify is usually limited. This will allow interactive exercises and a one-on-one coaching with the trainer. The training can also be done online, thus it is accessible to everyone all over the world.

Home hospice Caregiver training is an all-inclusive program that provides medical care and pain management to a patient. The family members and the dying patient are also given emotional and spiritual support. The training helps them reduce stress by educating and supporting them on how they could care for the family member who is about to die.

The main goal of the trainings is to offer comfort and dignity to the dying person. The quality of the final time of the patient on earth is improved and the family members are guided on what to do from the moment the patient is diagnosed with a sickness, after they have passed on.
