As co-founder of Empowered Endings, Dr. Bob Uslander, is working to shift the paradigm of End of Life Care by supporting, guiding, and teaching an empowered approach to Palliative and End of Life Care.  He became aware of the gaps in hospice and palliative care that cause patients to struggle.  The deaths of his parents and a dear friend provided a personal perspective into Caregiving that formed Bob’s determination to meet the needs of people with serious illness in a better way.  

Empowered Endings supports both patients and families through the final stages of life.  Bob, his wife Medical Social Worker Elizabeth, and the Empowered Endings team ensure each person feels heard, held, and whole throughout the end of life journey.  The team utilizes End of Life Doulas, nurses, a chaplain, and a Grief and dementia doula.
