UHELP's new book "Deciding What's Next and Trying to Remember will be distributed at the presentation. You will have the opportunity to "Decide What's Next?" when you become unable to communicate your wishes for end of life care. If you still have an old “Living Will” or if you are unsure of how end-of-life decisions will be made for you, come and find out how to make an advance directive or other documents that will help make sure your wishes regarding health care decisions are honored. The public, especially kupuna, family caregivers, service providers, students and faculty are invited. Little treats will be served. Donations to cover the cost of this hydration and nutrition are accepted but not expected. The William S. Richardson School of Law Library is located at 2525 Dole Street at UH Manoa.
