Safe Passages: Finding Comfort at the End of Life
Making the most of your life doesn’t just happen. It takes planning. By talking with experts, people can make informed decisions and learn how to relay this important information to their families, so they can plan for the best ending ever.
A great starting point is Courageous Conversations, a series of discussions about some of life’s most important choices hosted by Hospice of the Chesapeake at the Glen Burnie Regional Library, 1010 Eastway.
Sponsored by the John & Cathy Belcher Institute, an education and advocacy collaborative advancing the understanding of complex illness care at Hospice of the Chesapeake, the discussions are part of the nonprofit’s efforts to encourage a national dialogue about end-of-life.
When: 7 to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 10
What is the difference between hospice and palliative care? How do you recognize when that care is needed and where do you find services? Hospice of the Chesapeake physician Dr. Rudolph Willis and certified registered nurse practitioner Genevieve Lightfoot-Taylor will share their expertise and answer these and other questions about finding comfort with chronic illnesses and end-of-life care.
