Creating a Care Plan

There's a saying that life comes at you fast. Disease and death, just to name a few. When that happens will you be able to advocate for your medical care? Or how to handle your finances? Would you know how to advocate for a loved one? That's why everyone needs a care plan, a document that specifies the needs and wishes of you or your loved one- financial, medical, and legal.

This workshop from Life and Work Connections outlines a care plan, what it should contain, and who it is for. Spoiler alert: it's for everyone. A care plan ensures that even when you don't have your voice, you can still have a say in what happens to you. 

This series’ first presentation is live and provides an introductory review of ideas, approaches, and resources for caregiving conversations.   

For guidance with our own unique caregiving experiences, each presentation will be accompanied by resources and worksheets.
