About

Sacred Comfort Care is a natural, deeply human approach to care that restores presence, dignity and relational connection within modern caregiving.

​

Rooted in bedside experience and integrative practice, this work honors the whole person—body, mind and spirit—while supporting caregivers in offering comfort that is both skillful and deeply compassionate.

The Path That Led to Sacred Comfort Care

As a nurse for more than thirty years, I have had the privilege of standing beside individuals and families during some of life's most vulnerable moments. Over time, I begant o notice how the increasing demands of healthcare— documentation, technology, productivity, and pace—were quietly reshaping the care experience.

​

The relational heart of caregiving was often being overshadowed by urgency and task.

​

Caregivers are called to serve, to connectm, and to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. Unfortunately, many now find themselves stretched thin within systems that leave little room for presence. I have felt this tension myself. 

​

Nearly fifteen years ago, I participated in a year-long integrative training program. While it deepened my skills in many ways, it revealed missing components. Through the years I continued refining and integrating practices that support both the caregiver and the one receiving care. What emerged from continued learning, patient experience and reflection, became the foundation of Sacred Comfort Care. 

​

The Heart of This Work

Sacred Comfort Care is an invitation to restore what can easily be lost with task-driven systems—tenderness, dignity, reverence, and relational presence.

​

This natural approach to care affirms that even within modern healthcare, we can practice care that is deeply human, grounded, and compassionate.

​

If you feel this quiet knowing that care can be more sacred, more natural, and more present, I invite you to walk this path with me.

Jacki has had diverse experience that brings breadth and depth to everything she does. Her skills have been honed not only within the traditional medical system but also within the field of complementary and alternative therapies. 

​

Jacki's work with the dying and their loved ones has been an incredible blessing, for they have served to help her become viscerally aware of the frailty of life and the sanctity of dying and death.

The dying have been her teacher- about death and life. 

​

This work is love in action. Often tender, but always authentic. For Jacki, it is humbling, deeply awe-inspiring, and a blessing in every way.

​

Sacred Comfort Care is an invitation to return caregiving to its human, most sacred roots. 

You guided all of us in the family through unchartered territory, patiently listening and teaching us. Your reassurance and explanations gave us resilience. We will never forget  you.

I would highly recommend the Death as a Part of Life Program. It was thought-provoking, enriching, and transformative for me. Jacki is very knowledgeable, offering valuable insights and sharing her stories.

Working with Jacki was transformative and exceeded my expectations. She is so down-to-earth, helpful and really knows her stuff. I look forward to continuing to explore this "work".

-Jenna P.

I am so very grateful for you holding space and helping me to navigate the tender and practical places of my mom's end of life. 

I'm sure what you've shared will be with me for a long time.
