SUMMARY:Advance Care Planning Community Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Death is an important part of life. So like any other significant life event\, it’s well worth your consideration and a little forward planning. \nThis process is called advance care planning. Advance care planning is the process of discussing and documenting your future health care wishes\, values and priorities. It enables your family\, friends\, carers and health professionals to understand what you want\, should you become so unwell that you are unable to speak for yourself. More than 80% of Australians think it’s important to put our end-of-life care preferences into writing\, but less than 5% of us have completed an advance care plan. \nBOOKINGS ARE ESSENTIAL as places are limited. Register now to receive your Resource Pack in the mail. \nFor further information\, please contact the Place & Community Development Team on 9531 7628. \nPart of the Socially Active Seniors Program funded by the Department of Communities and the Shire of Murray.
