Death Conversations Kennett Square has announced that their November gathering will be a Five Wishes advanced directive workshop. The gathering will take place on Monday, November 11 at the Grieco Funeral Home office in Kennett Square and will be from 6:30 to 8 p.m.

If you have never completed a living will or designated someone to be your health care proxy, the Five Wishes form will complete both things at once. It is a simple and direct document and is 100 percent legal in the states of Pennsylvania and Delaware. As America’s most frequently used living will, Five Wishes is presented in easy to understand language to help you express your wishes in areas that matter most — the personal, emotional and spiritual, as well as the medical and legal. 

Five Wishes provides a means to legally document a health care surrogate, choices for medical treatment, comfort and care wishes, as well as what you want your loved ones to know. It can also be used to update an existing advanced directive if you’d like to make changes. 

Following a short presentation, everyone present will receive their own copy of the form to fill out on their own. The event and the document are free. To RSVP or for more information, email [email protected] or call 484-734-8100.
