The Most Important Conversation We're Not Having - Advance Care Planning

Learn how you can let your family and medical team know what type of medical treatment you would want, even when you are unable to speak for yourself.  Everyone over the age of 18 needs to complete the Five Step process of advance care planning... Think about what brings value and meaning to your life, Talk about it with your family and medical team, Document your choices legally on NC approved documents, Share your documents appropriately, and then Review them regularly to make be sure that they still reflect what is important to you.  

Let us help you move this task from your "To Do" list to "DONE".  Give your family peace of mind by providing them with the information that they would need to honor your decisions in a medical crisis. This is one of the best gifts you can give your family this holiday season - letting them know what is important to you!

As Dr. Ira Byock says, "I have an Advance Directive not because I am sick, but because I have a family."
