Death is inevitable…
As a death doula and death educator Distant Shores Deathcare can help you in the times leading up to death, during the active dying process, and posthumously. Your death (or your family member’s, or pet’s death) will be a unique experience tailored to your needs and goals.
But it doesn’t have to catch you unaware.
Every aspect of death and dying (for humans and pets too!) can be approached with confidence and compassion. You do not have to navigate this unchartered voyage alone.
Distant Shores Deathcare is here for you.
Our Services
Death Doula
A supported death is markedly better than an unsupported death. A “good death” is possible, and you deserve it.
Pet Death Doula
Pets are family, and the status quo for pet deaths does not reflect how important and special pets are to us. It’s time to give pet deaths the gravitas normally reserved for humans.
Document Preparation and Legacy Planning
Having the correct forms filled out and squared away pays dividends when death is nigh. Preparation is key!
Posthumous Plans
Cremation, Aquamation, Burial at Sea, Traditional Funerals…there are many options to consider! We will help empower you so that your preferred path is cost-effective and honored.
Home Funerals and Green Burials
There are many eco-friendly alternatives to mainstream death procedures . If you want to engage in greener death practices or orchestrate a home funeral look no further.
Death Exploration
Intended for Deathcare workers, particularly for new Death Doulas, but open to anyone who needs one-on-one death exploration.
“When it comes to Death there is little to fear but much to plan for.”
