You have the right to make decisions about your care, but making a plan can be complicated. A plan allows you to take charge of the kind of care you want. The seminar will include:
- An interactive advance care directive workshop
- Expert speakers, including a doctor, outlining what care options are available, including hospice and end of life care
- Important information about utilizing nursing homes and funeral homes
- Protecting yourself and your loved ones from scams, including elder abuse prevention
The Seminar will also be available on YouTube and my website.
