UVM Continuing Ed's video: End-of-Life Doula Programs at UVM Information Session

UVM's fully online End of Life Doula Professional Certificate program is developed by the The Robert Larner, M.D. College of Medicine at The University of Vermont in partnership with Cabot Creamery Cooperative. The End-of-Life Doula Professional Certificate will help prepare students to meet the growing demand for end-of-life support as people live longer and the course of the average dying process continues to become increasingly gradual and anticipated. 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. EOL Doulas support clients with individualized, compassionate care in a number of ways, including emotional, spiritual, informational, and physical support, which greatly helps to lower stress levels, aid in comfort, and promote personalized, even positive, dying passages for clients and their loved ones. In this informational webinar, program director Francesca Arnoldy and recent graduate Diane Button reviewed: What is end-of-life care? What is a doula’s role?
