I was a registered nurse for many, many years and saw situations that were completely out of control because people didn’t know what their loved one wanted. If you complete an Advance Directive, it is submitted to a hospital and it’s in your record, so everyone knows from the beginning the kind of medical care you would want.” - Shirley Strickler, ACP facilitator and former RN. Get It Done SB! is here to help you with your Advance Care Planning ahead of any critical medical situations. We believe that the more prepared you are, the better experience you will have.

Thank you to St. Vincent's Santa Barbara and Mari Carmen Garcia for being champions of our Advance Care Planning initiatives and hosting workshops for their residents! We had a lovely group of senior residents learn more about the importance of ACP from our trained specialists, Maritza, Maria, Jayne, and Shirley. In collaboration with Get It Done SB!, St Vincent's has helped their English and Spanish speaking residents give the gift of love to family by completing an Advance Directive.

You can learn more about St Vincent’s work here: https://www.stvincents-sb.org/.

Congratulations to Isaac Zamora, our Bereavement Counselor, for 1 year with Hospice of Santa Barbara!

Isaac has been providing individual and group counseling since 2023, starting at Freedom 4 Youth. His passion for community service began in 2016 after getting sober, which inspired him to give back. Isaac is dedicated to advocating for youth in need and cultivating practices that support mental health, such as critical consciousness and awareness as well as healing and resilience building.

We want to hear from you! Four years into our Get It Done SB program, we are seeing more of our community become knowledgeable about Advance Care Planning through conversations and attendance at our events. If you already have an Advance Directive in place, share with us why you made your healthcare plans for the future!
