Being prepared ahead of a crisis can make all the difference in the outcome. Here are a few tips from the National Institute on Aging.
  • Put important papers and copies of legal documents in one place.
  • Tell a trusted family member or friend where you put all of your important papers.
  • Discuss your end-of-life preferences with your doctor.
  • Give permission, in advance, for your doctor or lawyer to talk with your caregiver as needed.
