May 19 program on Starting Important Conversations

The Putnam County Hospice and Palliative Care Association will sponsor "Starting Important Conversations" on Thursday, May 19.

The program is scheduled for noon to 2 p.m. in the third-floor classroom at Putnam County Hospital. Lunch will be provided.

Certainly no guide and no single conversation can cover all the decisions that a person and their family may face. What a conversation can do is provide a shared understanding of what matters most to you and your loved ones. It can make it easier to make decisions when the time comes.

Ann Cottingham and Wilma Griffin from the Walther Foundation will share some strategies for discovering what families value and then how to communicate these values to our loved ones.

RSVP by calling Tammy Hunter at 655-2524.
