Physician Orders for Life=Sustaining Treatment (POLST)

Join Marilyn Ababio and Dorothy Ridley, representatives, for a presentation on POLST.  POLST is a form that spells out the medical treatment you desire during the end of your life.  Topics to be addressed include: What does POLST do?;  Who should have POLST?; Is POLST different from an Advance Health Care Directive?; Who can help me fill out a POLST form?; What do I do with my POLST form?; What if I want to change my POLST form?; as well as a question and answer period.
