Tailored to meet the needs of seniors, their families and care-givers, a workshop titled “Life and End-of-Life Planning for Seniors, their Families and Caregivers” will be offered later this month. The workshop will cover powers of attorney, advance directives and a checklist for what to do when a death occurs.
Anne Bradley Counts, a retired attorney from the nonprofit organization Legal Voice, will present legal and medical information for making decisions in advance for later years and end-of-life. Over the past eight years, she helped research, write and edit sections of the Handbook for Washington Seniors, and now is helping connect aging adults with the handbook.
The workshops are free and the public is invited. The 45-minutes presentation will be followed by 45 minutes of questions and answers.
The workshop will be offered at three locations on the Harbor:
• 1 to 2:30 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 19 at the Aberdeen Senior Center, 117 E. Third
• 10 to 11:30 a.m., Thursday, Nov. 20 at the Ocean Shores United Methodist Church, 557 Point Brown Ave. NW
• 1 to 2:30 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 20 at the Hoquiam Senior Center, 707 Simpson Ave, Hoquiam, WA 98550
