Family Conversations We Must Have But Do Not Want To
An interactive workbook by Michael White LNHA, LALD and Lisa White RN
About the Book
This interactive workbook was created to help families have the important — and often difficult — conversations about health, personal wishes, and end-of-life planning before a crisis forces the issue. Written by senior care professionals with decades of experience, it guides families through documenting where all of their critical health and personal information is located, so nothing is left to guesswork when it matters most.
