Grace House is proud to host Brush Country Nursing and Rehabilitation and Hospice Austin’s - The GIFT Project: Giving Instructions For Tomorrow on Thursday, May 23. Planning for the last chapter of life is a subject many of us would rather avoid! However, most people will become seriously ill at the natural end of their lives, and the default treatment often leads to intubation, catheterization, feeding tubes and other invasive procedures.

Some patients want every available technology; others do not. What’s important is that you decide for yourself what you want, speak with your loved ones, and write your wishes down.

Join Hospice Austin’s GIFT Project for refreshments while learning how to:

• identify your preferences, if there comes a time when you cannot speak for yourself
• decide how to choose a medical power of attorney
• discuss wishes with loved ones and medical providers
• complete advance directives

This event is FREE to attend and refreshments will be provided. To see the flier, please visit here. 

For more information or to RSVP by May 16, please contact Marlen Benavides, sales and marketing director at Grace House, at 512.402.0968 or marlen@gracehouse.com.
