Advance Care Planning is about more than completing paperwork.

These conversations can provide clarity for you and the people who care about you.

Watch this short video from Advance Care Planning Canada, then consider starting a conversation with someone you trust:

The devices can be used for video calls, music, games, news and virtual family gatherings.

A familiar voice or face can bring comfort, reduce isolation and help loved ones feel closer, even when they cannot be in the same room.
