With careful consideration for the #Hamlin family, I'm reposting my post from three months ago about the #NFL and #AdvanceCarePlanning, not even considering that it could happen to a player.
Please take the time to read and listen. As an end-of-life doula, my specialty is #advancecareplanning and #advancedirective. I often say planning for a #medical#emergency during a medical emergency is a medical crisis. We can be surprised at anytime, but we can also be prepared if the time comes.
I pray for #damarhamlin and his family and ask you to do so.
Please take a look at the video. https://lnkd.in/eNbmitkX
Now that football season has begun, and since my team is the #PittsburgSteelers, I thought I would share this intriguing article about the relationship between #AdvanceCarePlanning and #NFL. Would your advance directive be honored if you had a #medicalemergency at a football game?
As the holidays are approaching and we travel to various locations to celebrate, will the clinical team know what you want if you cannot speak for yourself? 🤔
Do you know your state requirements for honoring your medical wishes if you cannot speak for yourself? Do you know the requirements for the state you are traveling to?
Let's talk Book some time with me
