with our
serving Sydney's Sutherland Shire and surrounding areas
Together With You offers assistance with advance care planning, end-of-life service navigation
and doula support that is individually tailored to your needs and wishes.
We assist you to plan now and make informed choices in preparation for your end of life,
which can ease the burden on you and those close to you when the time comes.
What we offer
01.
We help you prepare for the future by supporting you to start planning now.​​​
We discuss options with you, and guide you through the paperwork you need to document your wishes (such as your Will, Advance Care Directive, and appointing Enduring Powers of Attorney and Enduring Guardians)
so they are known and can be followed.​​
​This isn't just about documents; it's the profound gift of peace of mind you give those close to you, easing their burden when the time comes.
02.
When your needs become more complex and as your circumstances change,
we help you navigate healthcare services and the end-of-life care system.​
Our goal is to empower you to make informed decisions, access resources,
and coordinate the support you need for a peaceful end-of-life journey.
03.
​​We provide emotional support and practical assistance in your final months, weeks, days, hours.
​​​We can also help facilitate legacy work, such as letters and memory projects,
ensuring your final journey is approached with dignity and connection.
04.
Dying is natural, yet talking about it is hard.​
​We encourage individuals, families, friends and communities to have open conversations
about death, dying, and end-of-life planning.​​​​
We facilitate difficult but necessary conversations with your family, bridging communication gaps and building consensus so that everyone is on the same page.
​​We want you to feel informed, empowered, and autonomous about your choices.
What is an End-of-Life Doula?
An end-of-life doula is a non-medical professional who provides practical, emotional, and spiritual* support to you when you are forward planning for your end of life, nearing your end of life, or at the end of your life.
A doula can help you understand your options and make informed decisions that align
with your values and preferences.
We can support you to organise your essential documentation such as a Will, an Advance Care Directive, and nominating an Enduring Guardian and an Enduring Power of Attorney.
We can assist you to navigate the healthcare system, coordinate services, and make funeral plans.
Our support is individually-tailored to your needs and wishes, and we advocate for you to ensure your wishes are respected and upheld throughout your end-of-life journey.
​​Preparing for your end of life can ease the burden on you and those close to you when your time is near.
​​With arrangements already in place, you can focus on the time you have together so your final journey
is as peaceful as possible.
A doula can also facilitate discussions about death and dying, aiming to increase your understanding of what is available to you, and empower you to approach your end of life with dignity and autonomy.
