Description
It is important to have your health care decisions in place if a serious accident or sudden illness left you unable to do so. Establishing an Advance Directive and Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care will ensure your wishes are met if you are unable to consent to medical treatment or end-of-life care.
The Advance Care Planning seminar is free and open to the entire adult community, and outlines the importance of naming a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care (health care agent) and sharing your goals and preferences for care with that agent, as well as your loved ones, physician and Hospital. Documents for your Advance Directive (Living Will) and Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care will be provided at the class, along with instructions on filling them out.
The seminar is limited to 20 people, and participants are encouraged to bring along the person whom they wish to name as their health care agent. All attendees must pre-register by November 1, by calling Cindy Mortensen at (360) 427-9544.
