Advance Care Planning - A Workshop for Carers
Wednesday 24th March 2021 2pm - 3pm
Advance Care Planning is:
- Thinking about what you would like to happen
- Thinking about what you don’t want to happen
- Sharing your thoughts with others
- Making sure your wishes are known even if you can’t speak up
For a Carer Advance Care Planning with the person you care for means:
- Knowing rather than guessing
- Being confident when telling others
- Avoid making decisions at times of crisis
In the session we’ll talk about:
What you can plan for, how to plan, forms you can use, how to know when the time is right, how to start the conversation.
