National Healthcare Decisions DayIt’s time to get The Conversation started—

How do you feel about discussing your own death??

Do you have religious, spiritual or moral beliefs that may play a part in your views about medical treatments that may extend your life? What are these views?

Does concern about money play a part in making your decisions about medical care? In what way?

Do you worry about being a burden to your loved ones? If so, in what way? How do you think your loved ones would feel about being caregivers?

Would being aware, being free of pain, remaining independent, or other issues about quality of life play a part in your decisions about medical care? How?

How would your loved ones be affected if they had to make decisions about your care? Would they know what you want?

Do you have an Exit Strategy?

Contact your local hospice or Compassion & Choices to get the information you’ll need to have The Conversation with your family and have everyone fill out an Advance Healthcare Directive (state specific) because we never know which day they might become necessary.

If you might be interested in taking part in an online Death Cafe, which is a general conversation about death and dying, please fill out the form below and if enough people are interested, I’ll contact you.
