Come join Eileen Spillane, RN, NP and the founder of Befriending Death in unpacking the terms of Advanced Directives for Healthcare. Most Americans have never expressed their end of life wishes with their family or medical team. This topic and these terms can be overwhelming and confusing. We will spell them out in a clear and practical manner and help you get started on completing your legal documents and empower you to take control of your healthcare decisions.
