Community OutreachIn addition to caring for patients, Yolo Hospice provides community services and sponsors several community events.Advance Health Care Directive Program—Who Will Speak for You?Most people are not prepared when they face difficult medical decisions. An Advance Healthcare Directive is a legal document you fill with your healthcare wishes in writing prior to the occurrence of a medical crisis. We are available to meet with individuals and family members, community groups, government agencies and businesses to show you how to create your own Advance Directive. You may also download a form on line and do it yourself (click here). When Yolo Hospice helps you complete your Advance Directive document, we will create a wallet-size electronic file (small CD) for you. You can download it at your doctor's office, hospital or your home computer.• Select an agent — someone (and at least one alternate) who knows your values and you trust to speak for you if you are unable to communicate your wishes.
For more information on Advance Directives, email communityoutreach@yolohospice.org or Speaker's BureauThrough our educational outreach program, we provide speakers to service clubs, religious organizations, community programs, agencies, senior groups and many others. We have a variety of subjects to talk about from “Hospice Care 101”, to “Filling out an Advance Directive”. Call us and we will tailor a speech for your audience. We do not charge for these services, although donations are always welcome. To schedule a speaker or get more information, please contact Candace Frawley at (530) 758-5566, or cfrawley@yolohospice.org. Outreach Events
