The LOVE Model for Conscious EOL Services
To provide the highest standard of holistic end of life care, I developed the four step LOVE model as a guide for end of life Doulas.
Through the LOVE model, holistic and compassionate care is ensured during this vulnerable and sacred time.
Step #1: The first step in the LOVE model is to Listen which involves actively hearing and understanding the needs, fears, and desires of the individual facing their end of life journey.
Step #2: Next, we Observe, paying close attention to their physical, emotional and spiritual well-being in order to provide personalized care and support.
Step #3: Validation is the third step, where we acknowledge and validate the
individual’s experiences, feelings, and thoughts, creating a safe space for them to
express themselves openly and honestly.
Step #4: Finally we Empower the individual to make decisions about their care, legacy, and final wishes, ensuring they have means and control over their end of life journey.
