Advance Care Planning ​Consultations

Picture
We all know we should do our Advance Directives, but less than 40% of Americans have completed their paperwork. And it is not enough to simply fill out a generic form and file it away.

​True Advance Care Planning involves discussing your values and wishes with a carefully chosen  healthcare agent, documenting your wishes completely, and sharing this document widely. When done properly, the likelihood or your wishes being honored is greatly increased. 


Contact Merilynne today to get it done!
​

In-person or online meetings using the Respecting Choices® method include:
  • 90-minute sessions
  • In person or on-line
  • Individually or with your healthcare agent(s)
  • Follow-up phone calls or emails
  • Forms provided, or supply your own
  • Periodic "check ups"
