SUPPORTING YOU TO PROVIDE COMPASSIONATE CARE AT END OF LIFE AND AFTER DEATH
Dying2Care is dedicated to end of life care support Led by a Registered Nurse, with over 30 years of experience in community and in-patient settings, both as a senior nurse, a change agent, policy writer, and an educator/facilitator.
I do not call clients patients rather I think of them as friends, ensuring that I work in partnership with them and their family, acknowledging that they remain in control of their lives and are their own experts. I offer kindness and reassurance on this journey
I am also qualified in the use of therapeutic massage and aromatherapy to provide comfort at the end of life.
Using a compassionate approach ensures those receiving our support are able to enjoy their final days in peace and comfort with those they hold dear.

Dying2Care: Supporting Dignity and Comfort
Supporting Kindness & Compassion at End of Life and after Death
through Education, Soul Midwifery and Funeral celebrancy.
I created Dying2Care as a comprehensive care navigation, education, advocacy and support service for people as they approach the last phase of their life, and after death.
I can guide both the person and their loved ones.
This service is designed to make the end of life journey as comfortable and meaningful as possible. I understand the often overwhelming impact of death and dying on the individual, their family and those in their circle of care.
I can provide a range of services including system navigation, advance care planning, soul midwifery, companionship, advocacy and education and training.
I also offer a bespoke funeral celebrancy service working with you to design a ceremony which reflects the personality of your beloved.
I do not provide hands on or personal care- but will work alongside to support you in accessing the care you require.
Throughout all of these services, I strive to bring a sense of tenderness and compassion to the end of life experience.
