Community Health: Advance Care Planning with Valley Health
4 April 2019
As part of our Community Health Partnership with Valley Health, we were in the studio today for conversation about Advance Care Planning. Jodi Young and Tina Carter talked about the nuts and bolts of advance directives and why it’s so important to have a conversation NOW with loved ones about end-of-life wishes if they become unable to speak for themselves. Jodi and Tina encourage listeners to honor National Healthcare Decisions Day on April 16, 2019 by picking up advance care planning information and guidance at their local Valley Health hospital. There are several opportunities throughout the month of April.
Staff will be available to answer questions and share information on advance directives (as well as organ and tissue donation) at the following times and locations:
