Eighty per cent of people who die in a hospital can’t communicate at the end of their lives. If that were you or your loved one, would your family know your wishes? Who would talk with the doctors and how would they share that information? What about if you broke a hip and couldn’t return home before significant modifications? Do you know where you’d stay? Elder mediation guides families through respectful, collaborative conversations around ageing, with the older person at the centre. This webinar will explore how elder mediation works, when to use it, and why all families will benefit.
