Presentation by Kathleen Rouleau, Hospice Nurse, End-of-Life Educator, Funeral Celebrant

Planning ahead does not release us from the deep emotions that belong to these times. However, being prepared can help create pockets of calm in the storm because your people know what you have sanctioned for yourself.

This introductory class will explore:

• Who can speak for you if you cannot speak for yourself How to document health-care wishes and personal values

• The difference between medical, legal, and practical planning documents

• How paperwork can reduce uncertainty for family and caregivers

• Where to keep documents and who should have copies
