FULL CIRCLE of LIVING & DYING:
Bringing back the beautiful tradition of home death care
in your private home setting. This is totally legal in California.
Home death care is unique for each person or family. It involves care at a level that feels right for each individual group - family, friends, caregivers and others in the community. The dying process may occur in a care facility, hospital or home. Over 75% of people surveyed say they want to spend their dying days at home. Only 25% of those people actually do die at home surrounded by loved ones.
Taking back the old tradition of home death care may mean you are the caregiver for your dear one in your home. With a terminal diagnosis, hospice can help with comfort care and is covered by Medicare. Private caregivers may be brought in to help when care becomes overwhelming. Pre-planning for dying wishes should be documented in advance. This allows everyone involved in end-of-life and after death care to know the wishes of the dying person. For the dying individual, this may be a time for grief guidance, creating a legacy project, writing your own obituary, and planning your own memorial service.
The work of Full Circle of Living & Dying includes education and guidance. We train you in the care
of a dying loved one, and oversee after death care so your loved one may lie in honor (home wake/vigil) for one to three days. We may assist in arranging options for burial or cremation with transportation and paperwork. We offer guidance in creating sacred space in the room for the dying person, guide ceremonial washing, anointing, dressing and readying of the deceased body to lie in honor in the home. Assist in procuring dry ice, cardboard casket and organize vigil. We can assist in creating a legacy project and plans for memorial service.
Importance of Home death care: Allows time for family and friends to gather and process grief in a loving setting, honoring the death process in your own comfortable environment. You may create a unique personalized funeral/ceremony using your creativity, religious traditions, and spiritual rituals or honor a loved one's special requests.
PRE-PLANNING IS THE BEST WAY TO MAKE YOUR WISHES KNOWN. CALL FOR FREE PHONE CONSULTATION - AKHILA (916)397-5443
We also offer in-home death care consultations. Let's have step by step discussion with your family or agent about what you want for your own after death care, or care of a loved one.

- Creating your own after death plans (funeral) avoids confusion during a time of grief and allows family & friends to follow your specific wishes when death arrives.
