End-of-Life Planning: Issues and Options
with Dixcy Bosley, Iona Senior Services
In-Person, Wednesday, October 25, 2:00-3:00 pm
If you attended our March program, you know how important this issue is. This in-person session will provide you with additional information including some of the forms you need to ensure your wishes are documented. Attendance at the March session is not required.
The first few minutes of the program will be a quick review of the information presented in March. Then Dixcy will provide us with more information including a checklist and some of the forms which may be helpful to you. There will be time for questions.
Learn how to replace fear with a plan for your end-of-life care and make empowering decisions. In this session, Dixcy Bosley will clarify what lies ahead, how to get specifics, identifying what matters most, considering prolonging life, and how to communicate and document your wishes. She will share practical approaches and insights from her years advising older people about end-stage medicine and hospice.

She has spent the last 30+ years developing wellness programs, raising a family, caring for her own aging parents, and advocating for informed end-of-life care in various community settings.
