At Your Path Guide, we aim to provide compassionate and comprehensive end-of-life support to individuals and their families as they navigate this sacred journey. Our mission is to offer guidance, comfort and practical assistance to ensure a peaceful and dignified transition.

How we can help

End-of-Life Planning:
We assist clients in helping to create personalised end-of-life plans that reflect their wishes and values. From Advance Care Directives to funerals, we help you navigate the complexities of planning for the future.

Legal Document Planning:
We support organising and preparing essential legal documents, such as wills, powers of attorney and advance care directives, to ensure your affairs are in order.

Individual and Family Support:
We offer compassionate support to individuals facing end-of-life challenges and their families or loved ones, providing a safe space for open communication, emotional processing and connection.

Liaison Assistance:
We can liaise between medical professionals, family members and other support services to help coordinate seamless communication throughout the end-of-life journey.

Our team provides practical assistance with coordinating healthcare services, arranging for home care and managing daily tasks to alleviate burdens and promote comfort.

We provide compassion, companionship and emotional support to individuals and those around them, offering a listening ear, comforting presence and validating feelings.

Legacy Planning:
We assist in preserving and sharing your legacy through storytelling, memory-making activities and documenting your life's journey for future generations.

Death Cleaning:
We provide assistance in the style of Swedish Death Cleaning, a practice of decluttering and organising possessions to simplify one's life and reduce the burden on loved ones after passing away.

Palliative Care Partnership:
We collaborate with palliative care professionals to help provide holistic support, addressing physical, emotional, and spiritual needs throughout the end-of-life journey.

Vigilling Support:
Our team offers bedside support during the final hours and days, providing comfort, reassurance and presence to the individual and their loved ones.

Other Negotiated Support:
We understand that each end-of-life journey is unique, and we are committed to providing customised support tailored to your specific needs and preferences. Lets chat!
