Death and Dying With Dignity

Dying with dignity is something that everyone wishes for themselves and their loved ones. As somebody with dementia, it can feel callous to talk about the subject of death, but it can be extremely liberating to know that your family know not just your wishes for when you die but also what you want during the end of life stages.

This education course will follow a process that allows participants to answer a number of questions, either on their own or with a family member. Such questions could include:

• Do I want treatment to be stopped at a particular point?
• What is involved in making a Do Not Resuscitate request?
• What is an advanced directive?
• How is capacity decided?
• What is the power of the attorney?
• When should an advanced directive be created?
• How do we start the conversation?
