Samantha and Danielle joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about Advance Care Planning with OSF HealthCare. OSF HealthCare offers a vital resource for individuals planning their future medical care. The OSF Care Decisions model provides specially trained facilitators to guide patients through critical conversations about end-of-life preferences. Facilitators assist in completing the Power of Attorney for Health Care form, allowing individuals to designate a trusted agent to make decisions if they can’t. These sessions encourage individuals to reflect on their desired care, spiritual needs, and pain management, even considering who they’d want by their side in the final moments. Preparing in advance offers peace of mind and relieves family members of difficult decision-making burdens. You can make an appointment using MyChart or call the hospital at 309-852-7500.
