Topics around death and dying are often awkward to talk about, but discussing them with your family is the best way to make sure your final wishes are followed through.
Join us Tuesday, November 16th at 6pm for a discussion about advance directives with special guest host Marci McEnroe, a certified End of Life Doula Specialist.
Advance directives are legal documents that allow you to spell out your decisions about end-of-life care ahead of time, so your wishes can be followed even if you become incapacitated. They can include directions about medical interventions like ventilators or tube feeding, instructions on whether or not to donate your organs, naming a specific person to have power of attorney over your affairs, and more.
McEnroe specializes in end of life planning, holding vigil, as well as educating and empowering those and their loved ones at the end of life. Previous to becoming a doula, she spent more than a decade in the medical profession in the Klamath Basin. She was born and raised in Klamath Basin and serves Klamath Falls and surrounding areas.
