Description

In this episode of the Métis Speaker Series, we speak with Jennifer Mallmes about end-of-life care in Canada, with a focus on Métis communities. Jennifer is the co-founder of the End of Life Doula Association of Canada and the creator of the End of Life Doula and Indigenous End of Life Guide programs at Douglas College. She’s now working with Métis Nation BC to develop a program specifically designed by Métis, for Métis - after realizing that previous “Indigenized” approaches didn’t fully reflect Métis needs. Tune in as Jennifer emphasizes the importance of honouring diverse cultural perspectives in end-of-life care, because you only get to do it once.
