Take the first step, share your choices

Advance care planning for health care decision making does not happen overnight. It takes thought, emotional readiness and time to sort out the options and ready oneself for this serious undertaking.

 

Sharing your choices through conversation is an important first step. In the long run, the conversations will be the greatest gift to those you love, giving them the confidence to act knowingly on your behalf and the comfort of knowing that your wishes will be honored.
