Did you know that 80% of Canadians have thought of end-of-life care but less than 20% have an advance care plan? In this free online workshop, you will be invited into a conversation and facilitated group discussions about values, wishes and beliefs for personal health care. These conversations are an important part of advance care planning – which is a way to help you think about, talk about, and document your wishes for future care. These conversations may be one of the most important ones you will ever have.

Planning today makes sure that your wishes are known and may bring peace of mind to you, your family and those who may have to make decisions on your behalf.

Note: this workshop will be an interactive session, including an opportunity to participant in in small-groups discussions. During the interactive portions of the workshop, participants are encouraged to turn on their microphones and audio/mics. Those who are not comfortable can leave the virtual small-groups and can also turn off their cameras and mics as needed while in the main group.

The content will be presented in English, however bilingual participation is encouraged. La présentation se fera en anglais, mais la participation dans les deux langues officielles est encouragée.
