End-of-life planning

The Area Agency on Aging presents a 3.0-credit hour continuing education workshop, Ethics of End-of-Life Planning: Burden of Love, Not Guilt, from 9 a.m. to 12:15 p.m., on Tuesday, May 24, online via Zoom. The cost is $40 to earn CEUs or $20 without CEUs.

This training meets the Ohio CSWMFT Board ethics training requirement. Advance registration is requested by May 20. More information and the registration form is available on the website at www. info4seniors.org, or by emailing khaus@info4seniors.org.

The presenter is Judy A. LaMusga, attorney and counselor-at-law with 35 years serving individuals living with disabilities and their families.

This workshop will assist professionals in having important conversations so that when the end of life occurs, a burden of love can exist instead of a burden of guilt.

Workshop participants will learn the legal framework of end-of-life planning, including health-care powers of attorney, living wills, do not resuscitate (DNR) orders, physician medical orders and final disposition of remains. Most importantly, attendees will learn about the human, ethical framework for end-of-life planning.

The Ohio Board of Nursing accepts events approved for counselors and social workers for continuing nursing education.
