Humanizing Healthcare
There is a gap in the current healthcare system when it comes to caring for people at the end of life. We provide care to fill in those gaps because we are not bound by the constraints of insurance. Our experienced doctors, nurses, doulas and grief counselors work with your existing team of caregivers to provide care that they are unable to such as labs and IV fluids at home or Medical Aid in Dying (Maid). Our mission is to restore dignity, agency, and love to those in the final stages of life. Those who are experiencing that transition, the people who love them, and the providers who serve them, deserve to be informed and supported physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Together we can humanize healthcare at the end of life and give those in need the choices they deserve.

own words
When Dr. Bob Uslander and Elizabeth Uslander, MSW MTS, met, they realized they had a shared vision to transform the final chapters of life by empowering patients, families and providers. With their combined expertise they are transforming the way we approach the final stages of life.
Bob and Elizabeth are just very gentle souls. There was no pressure and shared with my wife Rachel and I the many options you have to consider. It felt just like someone putting their arms around you.
For us as a family, Bob and Elizabeth gave us the tranquility and support that we needed at that moment. It made a total difference in the way my Dad passed away. It allowed me to be the daughter and not a nurse.
