[Michlib-l] Upcoming IN Person Event at Baldwin Public Library: End-of-Life Options in Michigan

[Mick Howey]

Hello Michlib!

Please join us at 7:00 PM, Monday, February 10th as we welcome Compassion &
Choices' presentation End-of-Life Options in Michigan.

Through this interactive presentation, Compassion and Choices members will
detail the medical landscape in Michigan today, explain advanced directives
and why everyone should complete theirs, review dementia’s nuances and
explain medical-aid-in-dying. Presenters will guide participants through
slightly humorous, thoughtful interactive questions and show a brief movie
clip. Our Michigan Action Team members are trained to present clear,
accurate information about end-of-life autonomy and equally important,
clarify any preconceived misconceptions. We foster a comfortable atmosphere
that promotes open dialogue for the audience. Relevant handouts are
available as well as the opportunity to chat with our presenters. The
presentation covers many relevant topics to empower each individual to
think about and choose an end-of-life care plan that’s best for them
without coercion or undue influence.


Compassion & Choices’ <https://compassionandchoices.org/> mission is to
improve care, expand options and empower everyone to chart their
end-of-life journey.  Their vision is a society that affirms life and
accepts the inevitability of death, embraces expanded options for
compassionate dying and empowers everyone to choose end-of-life care that
reflects their values, priorities and beliefs.
