What tools are available to intervene when an adult is unable to care for themselves? What protections can you put in place to protect yourself if you unexpectedly are no longer capable of making a decision for yourself? This workshop will identify various ways you can protect yourself and adult loved ones who have been or become incapacitated. We will discuss protective mechanisms such as guardianship, power of attorney and health care proxies, as well as identify programs and settings that can be accessed to support your loved one when they are resistant to care.
