WELCOME TO DYINGMATTERS.CA

Welcome, so glad that you are here.

DyingMatters.ca is dedicated to increasing the awareness and knowledge about death and grief literacy, the knowledge and skills
required to plan for and support ourselves and others at the end of life, and through bereavement.

DyingMatters.ca is dedicated
 to empowering everyone in their own end of life process so they may better advocate for themselves and those they care.

DyingMatters.ca was created by Olga Nikolajev RN, MA, FT.
Olga is an End of Life Nurse Educator and a Fellow in the field of Thanatology, the study of dying, death and bereavement.
​Olga is Certified in Thanatology: Death, Dying and Bereavement with the Association of Death Educators and Counsellors ADEC.


As an End of Life Nurse Educator I am able to offer support and guidance. With over 25 years of experience in the field of end of life care, health & death education, I can guide you through the different aspects of dying and death so that you may empower yourself and those who care for you. I addition, I can offer a compassionate presence as you heal through grief.

What is Death Literacy?


​Death Literacy is defined as having the experience, skills and knowledge that enable all of us to plan for and gain access to end of life care support and services. Death Literacy increases our understanding in how to best plan for end of life.
