RE: Volunteer work for End of Life Doula

Dear Hiring Team,

I am writing to express my interest in volunteering in an End-of-Life
Doula position. With a background in nursing, formal end-of-life doula
training, and deeply personal experience supporting loved ones through
hospice and death, I am drawn to this work with both respect and
intention.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and am currently certified as
an End-of-Life Doula, where I have studied the physical, emotional,
and spiritual processes that accompany dying, as well as legacy
projects and family support. Beyond formal education, my most
meaningful preparation has come from walking alongside family members
through illness, hospice care, and end-of-life
decision-making—reviewing advanced directives, supporting care
plans, and being present during vulnerable moments.

My professional background in healthcare administration and
patient-facing roles has strengthened my ability to communicate
clearly, remain grounded in emotionally charged situations, and
support individuals and families with empathy and discretion. I am
deeply comfortable holding space, listening without judgment, and
providing steady support during times of uncertainty and transition.

I am particularly drawn to your organization because of my own
experience at your care center with my father. I would be honored to
bring my compassion, reliability, and lived experience to your team
and to support individuals and families during this profound stage of
life. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Warmly,
Janine Josephsen
