Choose empowerment instead of overwhelm with end-of-life care planning.
End-of-life planning is the process of contemplating and documenting your end-of-life decisions. These decisions cover a broad range of topics from specifying medical care preferences to curating your ideal vigil.
Planning for death isn’t morbid. It is a gift to those left behind, providing a greater sense of relief knowing that “the affairs are all in order.” Ultimately, end-of-life planning helps you have the best quality of life by communicating your wishes to all involved.
Discuss Your Wishes
Do you want to die at home? What sort of medical care do you or don’t you want? How do you envision the space in which you die? Do you want to curate it with photos and other memorabilia?
These are the questions that lie at the heart of end of life planning. They ask how you want to die, yes, and they ask how you would like to live until the last moment.
Advance Care Planning & Paperwork
Create your advance care directive, name a power of attorney, and specify under what circumstances you would or would not want a DNR (do not resuscitate) order.
Centralized Organization
Scattered paperwork is of no help to anyone.
Part of the process of end-of-life planning is gathering your key documents in a central location for an easier planning process.
Funeral & Memorial Planning
Planning a funeral in the wake of death is a painful and complicated process.
Making funeral & disposition arrangements ahead of time reduces unnecessary suffering, allowing loved ones to more easily transition into the grieving process.
