This Tuesday, April 12 at 6 PM CT, the Chicago chapter of The Mended Hearts, Inc. will host a conversation with Chaplain Edward Penate on the topic of “End of Life Planning for Patients and Caregivers.”
Chaplain Penate for many years has served at Northwestern Memorial Hospital to give pastoral counseling to patients facing severe illness to address their emotional needs as well as other counseling on how to handle their illness. Since all of us from time to time are confronted with a friend or relative who is facing a situation which may have life threatening consequences, we should be prepared to interact with them as they face their emotional needs. While advice on estate planning may be one topic, the intent of this presentation is more directed toward assisting the person dealing with his or her illness in a positive manner.
All are welcome. No registration is necessary. Meetings are held over Zoom. If interested contact Neal J. Block, president of the Chicago Mended Hearts chapter, at [email protected].
