Advance Care Planning - Eltham Library

FREE If you cannot communicate your preferences for care, who would speak for you? What would you want them to say?

Advance care planning helps make sure your loved ones and your doctors know what your health and personal preferences are. Advance Care Planning can give everyone some peace of mind.

Join Northern Health for a session on Advance Care Planning, ask questions and take away key information to make your plan and have the tools to discuss with your family and loved ones.

Please join us for this valuable session.

Morning tea provided.

For bookings call the Aged Care Navigation and Advocacy Officer on 9433 3138 or email agedcare@nillumbik.vic.gov.au.

NILLUMBIK DEATH CAFE



Nillumbik Council's Ageing Well team has partnered with Banksia Palliative Care to facilitate an open discussion on death and dying.

Join us for a cuppa and cake to discuss preferences, experiences and fears around end of life. Be an active participant or sit and listen to other members of the group to broaden your knowledge and spark your curiosity with death as a part of our (infinite) life.

Enjoy this casual and relaxed space where you can feel comfortable in sharing your beliefs and opinions in a supportive group setting.

The Death Cafe provides an accessible space for discussion, rather than grief support or counselling. If you are interested in the event but unsure whether attending a Death Cafe at this time is for you, email agedcare@nillumbik.vic.gov.au.

Registration is essential through the Ageing Well team.

Email agedcare@nillumbik.vic.gov.au or call 9433 3138.
