5 Wishes

All Locations

VIEW

Five Wishes is a nationally recognized advance care planning document that goes beyond a traditional living will. Written in easy-to-understand language, it helps you clearly communicate your personal, medical, emotional, and spiritual wishes.

During this informative seminar, you’ll learn about the five important areas covered:

  • Who will make decisions for you if you cannot
  • The medical care you would or would not want
  • How comfortable do you wish to be
  • How you want to be treated
  • What you want your loved ones to know

Each attendee will receive a complimentary Five Wishes document and step-by-step guidance on completing this legally recognized form. Questions are encouraged, and assistance will be provided throughout the process.

Take control of your future and ensure your wishes are known.
