Planning Ahead With NYU Langone Health

Palliative_FlyerSept2017news Planning ahead!  That’s right, many of us do not take the time to plan ahead.  When it comes to planning for elder-hood, we will benefit, but most importantly our families will benefit, if we understand how to prepare for end of life.  Many families struggle with making choices for their loved ones when serious medical concerns arise.  A chance to fully understand the needs of the individual can only be made in advance.  These “wishes” for how we are cared for can be made with an advance directive.

NYC Langone Health is offering an educational and informative chance for you to plan ahead.  The “Palliative Care and Advance Care Planning” seminar will be offered for free to individual, families and caregivers, Thursday, September 7^th, 5:30-7:30pm.  The seminar is located at the NYC Langone Health building, 550 1^st Avenue, 1^st Floor, Alumni Hall A, New York, NY 10016.  To RSVP please contact Nina Freidman, LMSW at nina.friedman@nyumc.org or 212-263-1055.

On Wednesday, September 13^th, from 3p,-5pm there will be a seminar designed specifically for medical professionals and what they need to know for patients and families.  Please contact Nin Freidman to register.

I will plan to attend the event on the 7^th myself.  If any one is interested in joining me, please reach out.  Together we can change the face of aging and bring valuable tools to our loved ones.
