About this Event

"Your Voice, Your Choice" Advance Care Planning Presentation

What is Advance Care Planning? An Advance Directive? A Healthcare Agent? A POLST form? You are invited to our presentation on completing an Advance Directive. You will be guided through the process of choosing a trusted decision maker and putting your wishes in writing related to healthcare in the event that you are unable to speak for yourself. All documents will be provided, and a Notary Public will be available to notarize your completed document if desired. Hosted by the Whatcom Council on Aging for the "What's Next: Planning Ahead" health fair. Duration of presentation: approx. 40 minutes, with Q & A at the end.
