SSAC: Introduction to Greensleeve Advance Care Planning

We’ll walk you through the steps of advance care planning:
Think – What is important to you and what you would want if you are not able to speak for yourself.
Learn – What your health care choices may be if you become ill.
Decide – Who you want speaking for you if you were unable to speak for yourself.
Talk – With the people you care about, and who care about you, to let them know what your future wishes are.
Document – What documents do I need?
And we’ll introduce you to the Sunshine Coast Green Sleeve – a “container” for your advance care planning documents. It contains the information emergency responders, your healthcare providers and your family need to ensure your wishes are honoured.
Everyone is welcome, but space is limited. Please register in advance by calling 604-885-3513 or emailing acp@coasthospice.com.
