Kids Place provides exceptional child care options for working families. As part of St. Louis Park Public Schools, we share the district’s commitment to provide children a safe, nurturing environment that energizes and enhances the spirit.
This class explores the importance of Advance Care Planning: making thoughtful decisions before a medical emergency, serious illness, or terminal diagnosis arises. Together, we will discuss the benefits of planning ahead and work through the Five Wishes® Advance Care Planning form step by step. Even if you choose not to use the form itself, it will provide a valuable framework for considering the many “loose ends” that deserve attention: your preferences for medical treatment, your definition of dignity, how you would like to be cared for, and how you wish to be remembered as life draws to a close.
Each participant will receive a Five Wishes® booklet to take home, offering guidance as you reflect on your values and wishes. This process empowers you to ensure your voice is heard and your choices are respected-even if you are unable to communicate them yourself.
