Advance Care Planning for Professionals in Entertainment

Wednesday, July 24
12 pm ET

None of us can predict what tomorrow may bring. What if you weren’t able to speak for yourself? Do you have a written plan stating what healthcare treatments you would or would not want?

Creating a good care plan involves more than completing an advance directive—it starts with a conversation. Join us for this free, hour-long presentation on how to prepare advance directives and make end-of-life healthcare decisions for yourself. Our team will ask questions to clarify what’s important to you about the care you receive and go over any existing advance medical directives with you. Together, we will explore how our values, beliefs and wishes play a role in how we define living well.

Advance directives will honor your medical choices and be a legal guide to help your healthcare providers, family and friends know exactly what you want if you are unable to speak for yourself. You will learn why advance directives are important documents and how each one can help you. In addition, we will also cover how to complete your advance directives.

In addition, we will be reviewing:

• Healthcare Proxy
• Medical Power of Attorney
• Living Will
• Do-Not-Resuscitate (DNR)
• Medical Order for Life-Sustaining Treatment (MOLST)

This workshop is for clients residing in the state of New York.
