End-of-Life Doula Association
Adelma Association
We accompany those facing the end of life, with particular care for those who go through it alone.
We offer a free, qualified presence on the human, emotional and practical level.
We do this with method and competence, thanks to our end-of-life doulas: professionals trained in the international INELDA method.
We offer free, non-denominational accompaniment, grounded in listening and in respect for the dignity of every dying person.
What we do
We offer an attentive, non-judgemental presence — human, empathetic and practical. Where the circle of care is missing because the person is alone, we become the first link.
Learn moreWe support family, partners, friends and caregivers: the first circle of care, the closest one and the most exposed to exhaustion and to a grief that often begins long before the farewell.
Learn moreWe train new end-of-life doulas as an act of giving back to society: the ability to care for the dying returns to the community and multiplies.
Learn moreEvents and gatherings open to the community, to break the taboo surrounding death and restore its nature as a human, social and communal event.
