Death Education
Through my Death Education classes in Atlanta and virtual classrooms,
I have taught many individuals everything I believe they should know about Dying in America.
I am passionate about speaking with medical students and professionals about Death Midwifery and have had the privilege to do so
at Kennesaw State University, University of Georgia, and New York University.
The future of end-of-life care will be a blending of modern medicine and the ancient art of Death Midwifery.

I requested that Narinder Elizabeth Bazen attend my nursing ethics lecture on death and dying. I had no criteria for her content as I wanted to hear what she would want nurses to know when caring for patients in their last days to hours. The presentation was more of a conversation with young adults about their preconceived notions of the responsibilities of providers in the care of a patient that is actively dying for non-traumatic reasons. I can't say enough about how wonderful the class was. Narinder is engaging and makes the conversation of death and dying incredibly peaceful, normalizing what our society is incredibly afraid of. Her experience as a performance artist enhanced the presentation as she knew when to be more dynamic and dramatic and when to be quiet and calm to get her points across and to keep the Gen Z's completely engaged. My students are still talking about how much they enjoyed her and how much more they appreciate the process of caring for dying patients and their families.
I would highly recommend Narinder as a presenter in any course that discusses the care of dying patients and their families
from a caring theory perspective at either the undergraduate or graduate level.
