Fountain Hills residents are invited to an informative and empowering presentation on advance care planning and directives taking place at 2 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 31 at the Fountain Hills Community Center, 13001 La Montana Drive.

The program is presented by Kathleen Blair of Arizona Care Hospice.

Though many don’t like to think about it, a change in health or an accident can happen to anyone at any time. The Five Wishes document discusses the five most important things to address when it comes to advanced care planning to ensure one’s wishes are respected even if they are unable to communicate them.

Pre-registration is requested for this event. It is free and open to the public. Call the Community Center at 480-816-5200 for more information and to register.

This program is sponsored by the Town of Fountain Hills Community Center.
