On Tuesday, April 16th, Blue Skies Hospice will sponsor and host a free community program on health care decisions and creating your power of attorney for health care.
Why is it important that you attend?
Ask yourself:
If you became seriously ill, what kind of care would you want?
Who would follow your instructions and ensure you get the care you need?
If you are caring for someone with declining health, do you know what kind of care they will need in the future? Do you know what their wishes are?
Do you know where to seek additional support services for your loved one and for yourself?
Speakers include local attorney James R. Oates and health care consultant, Susan Schwartz, R.N..
The event takes place on April 16th, from 2-4pm, at the Hammond Public Library on 564 State Street.
