ABODE CONTEMPLATIVE CARE

ABODE TEACHES THE ART OF CONTEMPLATIVE LIVING AND DYING WHILE PROVIDING A BEAUTIFUL HOME AND COMPASSIONATE CARE FOR THOSE AT END OF LIFE - AT NO CHARGE. ABODE'S VISION IS THAT WE LIVE IN A WORLD WHERE DEATH IS NOT FEARED, AND WE LIVE FULLY UNTIL WE DIE. ABODE'S GUESTS ARE THOSE IN THEIR LAST MONTHS, WEEKS OR DAYS OF LIFE AND HAVE NO PLACE TO LIVE AND/OR THEY NEED SOMEONE TO PROVIDE THEM WITH PROPER CARE. THE STAFF, VOLUNTEERS AND DOULAS PROVIDE 24/7 CARE IN A SPACIOUS HOME WHERE GUESTS RESIDE IN PRIVATE BEDROOMS, EACH WITH A PRIVATE BATH AND FRENCH DOORS THAT OPEN TO A BEAUTIFUL BACK YARD. THE STAFF CONNECTS WITH THE GUESTS, ENSURING THAT THEY RECEIVE LOVE, CARE AND BEAUTY DURING THOSE PRECIOUS LAST DAYS, AT NO COST TO THE GUESTS OR THEIR FAMILIES. ABODE'S COMMUNITY EDUCATION, OUTREACH AND END OF LIFE DOULA PROGRAMS STRIVE TO CHANGE PERSPECTIVES ON DEATH AND DYING. THERE IS NO OTHER HOME LIKE ABODE IN SAN ANTONIO. IN FACT, THERE ARE ONLY THREE OTHER SIMILAR HOMES IN THE ENTIRE STATE.
