Decisions, Decisions ? Do You Have Your Tool Kit

Perhaps the most important decision we can make and discuss with our loved ones is how we wish to live our final days. Many older Americans have never had this conversation with their families, nor have they completed their Advance Directives. This 1 hour presentation on Thurs., April 9 from 11 a.m. to noon by Mac Herring, RN, CHPN with Catawba Regional Hospice, will explore the four types of Advance Directive formats used in North Carolina: Living Will, Health Care Power of Attorney, Medical Orders for Scope of Treatment (MOST), and Do Not Resuscitate Orders (DNR). Participants will be able to discuss the various forms and be given a Tool Kit for completing and discussing their wishes with their Loved Ones. April 16th is National Health Care Decision Day, and all Americans are reminded to have this most important conversation with their loved ones annually. To attend, please RSVP with $1 to South Iredell Senior Center by Fri. April 3. No registration by phone. This program is being sponsored by Catawba Regional Hospice.
