SUMMARY:Advance Care Planning Community Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Death is an important part of life. So like any other significant life event\, it’s well worth your consideration and a little forward planning. \nThis process is called advance care planning. Advance care planning is the process of discussing and documenting your future health care wishes\, values and priorities. It enables your family\, friends\, carers and health professionals to understand what you want\, should you become so unwell that you are unable to speak for yourself. More than 80% of Australians think it’s important to put our end-of-life care preferences into writing\, but less than 5% of us have completed an advance care plan. \nBOOKINGS ARE ESSENTIAL as places are limited. Register now to receive your Resource Pack in the mail. \nFor further information\, please contact the Place & Community Development Team on 9531 7628. \nPart of the Socially Active Seniors Program funded by the Department of Communities and the Shire of Murray.

SUMMARY:Working with Loss Workshop
DESCRIPTION:One of the most difficult experiences of life occurs when we suffer the pain of loss – loss of a relationship\, loss of health\, loss of employment\, loss of a significant other. Perhaps the most difficult loss of all is death. The sense of loss is a universal human experience. As the losses we experience vary in degree from insignificant to major\, so do their effects on our wellbeing. \nFor caregivers to provide effective and compassionate care to the bereaved\, two conditions must be met: Caregivers must understand their own responses to loss\, and they must have theoretical knowledge about the normal grief process .A thorough understanding of the parameters of normal grief and the individual influences that bear on this process are necessary so that caregivers can recognise and deal effectively with specific loss reactions such as suicide bereavement. \nThis 1-Day Workshop will provide participants with the opportunity to: \n\nExamine personal responses to loss\n• Enhance their understanding of both normal and complicated grief\n• Apply this knowledge to other grief experiences such as suicide bereavement\n• Develop skills and an ability to work effectively with people they care for as they deal with the experience of loss\, through hands on practice\n• Recognise the importance of self-care\n\nPlease Note: If you are currently experiencing the personal pain of a loss\, please understand that this may not be the right time for you to participate in this workshop.\nPlease consider carefully if this is right for you and if you are not sure\, you can discuss it further with Lorna Hirsch on M: 0411 555 422 or E: Lorna.a.hirsch@gmail.com \nESPERANCE Working with Loss Workshop Flyer
