Living Will Clinic set

LENOIR, NC (December 19, 2016)…Living wills and other advance directives describe your preferences regarding end-of-life care. Because unexpected situations can happen at any age, all adults need advance directives. Caldwell Hospice and the Caldwell Senior Center will partner to offer a Living Will Clinic at no cost to the community on Thursday, January 12, at 1:30 p.m. at the Caldwell Senior Center in Lenoir. Retired local attorney Houston Groome will facilitate the clinic. “Advance directives, living wills, and healthcare powers of attorney are gifts to your family,” says Groome. “It tells them what your desires are for your care at end-of-life at a time when you cannot express them yourself. It also gives you peace of mind that you have made appropriate preparations.” Notaries and witnesses will be available to help anyone who wants to complete their documents at the clinic. For more information, or to register, call 828.758.2883.
