THE CRITICAL CONDITIONS PLANNING GUIDE
It is never easy to talk with your loved ones about the medical treatments you would want if you could not communicate on your own. The nationally acclaimed CRITICAL Conditions℠ Program makes the process easier and more effective. The centerpiece of the program—The CRITICAL Conditions℠ Planning Guide—walks you through advance care planning, beginning with meaningful conversations among your family members and resulting in the legal documentation of your preferences. By completing the steps outlined in this booklet, you can prepare yourself and your loved ones to make difficult decisions. Many of the issues raised in the CRITICAL Conditions℠ Planning Guide may be hard for you to talk about. While the conversation will not always be easy, it is one of the most important discussions you will ever have. Additional information on implementing the CRITICAL Conditions℠ Planning Guide can be found here.
