Learn about the different types of advance directives and identify resources that can help you complete your own.
Most Americans (88%) feel comfortable discussing issues relating to death and dying, yet research shows that only 42% have a living will or advance directive for health care.
Join Dr. Anu Agarwal for a brief talk that can help you get started on this important planning process. Dr. Agarwal will give an overview of living wills and the different types of advance directives, highlight their strengths and weaknesses and share practical tools to support you in the writing process.
Dr. Agarwal, now retired, worked over 35 years as a physician, specializing in Geriatrics, and as a leader and consultant in healthcare. Please call 510-981-6280 for more information on this program.
