Health can change in an instant. Do you know who would speak for you if you couldn’t speak for yourself?
On March 6th, we are hosting a vital, interactive community session led by certified trainers from Hospice Palliative Care Ontario (HPCO). This isn't just a presentation; it’s an empowering workshop designed to put you back in the driver’s seat of your own healthcare journey.
Learn about your rights in the Ontario healthcare system, how to choose the right Substitute Decision Maker, and how to have those "courageous conversations" with your loved ones so your voice is always heard.
What You Will Learn:
-Know Your Rights: Understanding Health Care Consent and your legal rights in Ontario.
-The "Substitute Decision Maker": Who they are, how they are chosen, and how to prepare them.
-Start the Conversation: Practical tips on talking to family and doctors about your future wishes.
-Peace of Mind: How planning now prevents "decisions under pressure" for your family later.
