💙 Wellness Wednesday 💙

April 16th is National Healthcare Decisions Day—a reminder of how important it is to make your healthcare wishes known before a crisis happens.

Every adult (18+) should consider completing an Advance Directive, which:
✔️ Names a trusted person to make decisions if you can’t speak for yourself
✔️ Includes a Living Will to outline your preferences for specific treatments

For those living with a serious illness, additional forms like a POLST (to guide medical care with your provider) and possibly a DNR are also important to discuss.

Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health is here to help. We’re offering two FREE workshops next week to walk you through these forms and answer your questions:

📍 Monday, April 20 | 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM
Plymouth Regional Senior Center
8 Depot Street, Plymouth, NH

📍 Thursday, April 23 | 10:00 AM-11:00 AM
Horse Meadow Senior Center
91 Horse Meadow Road, North Haverhill, NH

These sessions are free and open to all, in partnership with the Grafton County Senior Citizens Council.

Taking the time now gives peace of mind—for you and those who care about you.
