On April 16, 2012, join Americans across the country to talk to others about your future healthcare decisions and complete your advance directive for health care.
The National Healthcare Decisions Day (NHDD) initiative is a collaborative effort of national, state, and community organizations committed to ensuring that all adults with decision-making capacity in the United States have the information and opportunity to communicate and document their healthcare decisions.
WellStar is committed to helping our community understand that making future healthcare decisions includes much more than deciding what care they would or would not want; it starts with expressing preferences, clarifying values, identifying care preferences, and selecting an agent to express themselves.
By registering for a free workshop “Preparing Your Directive for Health Care,” you will receive a free CRITICAL Conditions™ Planning Guide that you can use to discuss and document your wishes for final health care. WellStar team members will receive 10 HealthStart points, and nurses will be awarded contact hours from Georgia Nurses Association.
For workshop dates and locations, call 770-956-STAR (7827) or go to www.wellstar.org.
