Taking Control: Planning for Difficult Health Care Decisions

Join the Anna's Angels Community Conversation. Nicole DePergola, ICU nurse at Overlook Medical Center, and Gilly McKie, a nurse practitioner with the Overlook Palliative Care team, will lead the conversation.

The discussion will 1) help you navigate what you need to know;2) coach you on how to have important conversations with your loved ones and doctors; 3) teach you how to prepare the documents that help you, your family/friends and clinicians take the best care of YOU in ways that are in keeping with your wishes and best interests.

Join the conversation and bring a friend. All are welcome. For more information, contact the Anna's Angels Hotline: 908-598-7906.
