Program Description
Event Details
You wouldn’t think of deciding on a vacation, a new job or retirement without a plan. But most people don’t plan ahead for what may be life’s most important decision: the medical treatment you would want if you were unable to speak for yourself. Advance care planning helps you assess your personal beliefs, values and health care goals so that you can make important decisions with more comfort and ease.
This presentation will focus on:
• What advance care planning is and how it benefits you and your loved ones.
• Ideas on how to start the conversation with your family and medical team.
• How to work with challenging emotions that can arise in advance health care planning.
Presented by Colleen Linnertz, LMFT, SEP, Advance Care Planning Facilitator, Bereavement Counselor, Sharp HealthCare.
