My Care, My Choice: Advance Care Planning Workshop (09.20.23)

***LIVE, VIRTUAL***

Choosing decision makers and preparing them to make decisions for you if you couldn’t speak for yourself is called advance care planning. It begins with a conversation when you are healthy, ahead of a crisis. Have you made a plan? Do those supporting you know what they would need to do? Whether your advance directive is 10 years old, 2 weeks old, or you’re just thinking about making one for the first time, come learn how to make sure that you have a say in your own care no matter what happens.

Goals:

• Examine some of the reasons why it’s important for everyone to plan for future medical decision making
• Understand advance care planning, your rights as a patient, and the decisions you should consider when making a plan
• Learn about the resources available to help you develop a strong advance care plan

Audience: Individuals interested in completing their own advance care plan, especially DBHDS and CSB employees

Cost: Free.

Advance registration is required.
