DT | Advance Care-Planning. - Linda Ward, Center for Practical Bioethics

Have you thought about what you would want to happen if you were in an accident and couldn't speak for yourself? Who would be called and what would they say on your behalf? 
 Do you know what your loved ones have in mind should they be in a similar situation?  Have you been to the doctor or hospital for some routine visit and been asked if you have an advanced directive? 
 
Linda Ward, former CX executive director, and COO of the Center for Practical Bioethics will unpack this challenging subject for us. The Center for Practical Bioethics is a national leader in the promotion of advance care planning.  Their Caring Conversations® workbook has been distributed to hundreds of thousands of families across the nation over the last 25 years. Linda will share the magic of “having the conversation” with family members and friends about what they would want when they can no longer make decisions for themselves.  She does this through stories—her own, as well as some from the many wonderful families who have been served by the Center’s experience when it matters most.
