The Twilight Brigade / Compassion in Action
Spokane                               

The Twilight Brigade's trained corps of volunteers can visit patients in: Veterans Hospitals, Hospices, Hospitals, and Nursing Home care facilities. Based upon the patient requests and needs, we can provide:

• A loving presence to those who are alone.

• Relief and resource support to loved ones and caregivers.

• Compassionate 24 hour attention and support through the last hours, allowing people to die in peace and with dignity.

There are never any fees connected to out services. Service to the dying is provided solely by trained volunteers at no cost to the patient or family. Our services are available to the terminally ill and their loved ones, whether or not they are hospice appropriate. The Twilight Brigade volunteers do not provide medical care,  medical treatments, or medical advice. That is the function of licensed professionals. While Twilight Brigade respects each individual's right to choose, we do not endorse suicide or euthanasia.

Volunteers are trained to...

• Maintain Confidentiality

• Provide Unconditional Positive Regard

• Be Present in the Moment

• Listen... and Refrain From Problem Solving

• Respect the Dying Process

• Facilitate the Life Review With an Emphasis on Appreciation and Closure

• Heal the Fears Surrounding Death and Dying

• Be a Loving Source of Support and Strength Through the Dying Process
