Many of us plan for big events, but few people plan for the last stage of life. Have you given some thought to personal and necessary preparations for when the time arrives? You, your family, and friends are invited to attend a free program to hear about this hard topic in a gentle, caring way, and gain vital insights on how to direct final care challenges and needs. The medical maze can often be confusing – come learn how to navigate this overwhelming path with a sense of confidence.
The program will be led by Patricia “Pat” O’Connor, APRN with a 40-year career in Primary Care, Palliative Medicine and Hospice as direct care provider, consultant and educator for health professionals, patients and their families.
