Heavenly Departures

For hospice teams, social workers, chaplains and funeral directors

Families often need more unhurried time than any care team can give. I’m glad to work alongside you, follow your plan of care, and keep you informed.

Judy Willemsen speaking to a group of Central Florida professionals

A calm extra pair of hands, in English and in Spanish

I support the patient and family emotionally, spiritually and practically, and I follow your plan of care. I don’t give medication, medical advice or nursing care, and I always direct medical questions back to your team.

For Spanish-speaking patients and families, I can sit with them in their own language, help them understand what your team has explained, and make sure their wishes are heard.

I also give talks to churches, community groups, senior living communities and businesses about planning ahead and how to talk about the end of life. confirm talks offer
