Introduction to Advance Care Planning with Rabbi Michael Dolgin with our Member Dr. Barbara Bresver and Denyse Burns
Thursday, June 17 at 7.00 p.m.
What is an Advance Care Plan, and why is it important? It’s never too early to start thinking about your health care options if you cannot speak for yourself. If something unexpected were to happen tomorrow, what care would you want to receive – or not receive? Who would speak on your behalf? These decisions are not easy, and it can be overwhelming to know where to start.
Join us to learn the key steps in creating an Advance Care Plan.
