SUMMARY:Honoring Choice: 5 Wishes Advanced Care Planning [Dempsey Connects]
DESCRIPTION:Advanced care planning conversations are important though often difficult and confusing. By taking the time to make your decisions known\, your directives can help alleviate fear and worry for you and your loved ones.\nFive Wishes is the most popular advanced directive in the United States\, meeting the legal requirements in several states\, including Maine. The document is easy to understand. All you need to do is check the box\, circle the direction or write a few sentences to make your needs known. We’ll walk through the document and learn what options are available to you and your family in this brief\, one-hour workshop.\n\nLed by Allison Osgood\, Hospice Liaison of Beacon Hospice.\n\nOpen to the public.

SUMMARY:Honoring Choice: About Palliative Care [Dempsey Connects]
DESCRIPTION:Some patients moving through a cancer diagnosis may learn about Palliative Care but what this service can provide may vary. Appropriate for patients of any age and at any stage in a serious illness\, Palliative Care can coincide with curative treatment. This kind of care is based on the needs of the person\, not the prognosis\, and is provided by a specially-trained team of doctors\, nurses\, social workers\, and other specialists to offer an extra layer of support.\nIn this workshop we will discuss what Palliative Care is\, how it differs from hospice care\, and what you can expect at a visit.\n\nLed by Julie West\, AGP CNP\, Mercy Hospital Palliative Nurse Practitioner.
