Advance care planning information session at The Moncton Hospital
(Horizon) April 13, 2015 - In honour of National Advance Care Planning Day, The Moncton Hospital is inviting the public to an informative planning session on April 16 at 7:00 p.m. in Amphitheatre A. Hosted by Dr. Pam Mansfield, Clinical Director of Palliative Medicine, the session will benefit patients and families who want to plan for their future health-care needs.
Advance care planning is a process of reflection and communication. It involves making choices regarding your future health-care wishes and naming a substitute decision maker to speak for you should you become unable to communicate.
Participants will learn the importance of advance care plans and how to create a personalized plan. The session will conclude with questions and answers. Please note that the session will be in English only.
