Episode Synopsis

Who this episode is for? Caregivers and aging adults concerned about planning for future healthcare emergencies
Topics covered in this podcast: End of life healthcare directives and DNRs - or do not resuscitate -, complications if those directives aren't present, and why you need these now rather than later.

This episode begins with some questions that you may find very uncomfortable. Listen along and ask yourself if you've properly planned ahead for your care and if you know who you can trust to make decisions for you and your estate when the time comes.
I encourage people to plan ahead for it, which is why I've included a downloadable form for Tennessee residents. I also recommend sitting with an elder law attorney (like myself) to supervise. You don't want to make mistakes with this process.

Are you in Tennessee? Then download this resource to help you get started with the Advance Directive process.
