Tammy Turner, Founder & President of the Board of Directors of Care Prepared Michelle Henderson, Manager, Community Partnerships, Hospice of the Chesapeake
In the first part of this evening's workshop, Ms. Turner will discuss how creating an advanced healthcare plan can empower individuals to take charge of their future healthcare and improve their quality of life. She will also discuss the similarities and differences between a Maryland Advance Directive form and the Maryland Order for Life Sustaining Treatment (MOLST) form. This is an important discussion for family caregivers as well as for all of us as we decide how we want to live out our lives. During the second half of this workshop, Ms. Henderson will share the role that hospice care can plan in supporting families during the final stages of life. Understanding the comprehensive nature of hospice can inform better planning and ease the emotional burdens often associated during this time.
