The Last Phase of Life

The Last Phase of Life In-Person

RML welcomes author and hospice nurse, Ellie Atherton, for a meaningful conversation and Ellie's practical guidance on preparing for the final phase of life.  This will be a wonderful opportunity to learn from her many years of experience.  Topics will include:

  • Understanding Advance Directives, Portable DNR and POLST
  • When to start planning
  • Becoming a caregiver
  • Recognizing the phases - life review, physical changes, last days, death bed visions and final hours
  • Having eyes for the mystery and beauty during this sacred time of life

 

Ellie Atherton, RN, has been a hospice nurse since 2003.  She frequently offers her presentations to reduce fears of death and dying, has presented a TEDx talk, and written three books on the subject. Her books will be available for purchase after the presentation at a reduced rate.
