Navigating the Healthcare Maze

About this event

The Care Support Committee and Mert Brubaker, our Care Navigator, will guide us in Navigating the Healthcare Maze from 3:00 - 4:30 p.m.

With Mert as our moderator, the members of the CSC, Annette Frantz, Jerry Kauffman, Pearl Lantz, and Katherine Cottam, will serve as members of a Healthcare Panel, each representing a different aspect of the Healthcare System. Our goal is to provide pertinent, simplified information on how the pieces of the system are designed to work in a crisis situation and what help is available when it all begins to fall apa
rt.

There will time for Q & A after each brief presentation on the following topics:
-- How the different living levels (Independent Living, Assisted Living, Long Term Care, and Skilled Nursing) respond to medical emergencies at VMRC per the Director of Nursing
-- Emergency Responses of Local Rescue Squad & Fire Department, and purpose of Do Not Resuscitate Orders
-- Sentara RMH Emergency Room responses & procedure per the nursing director
-- Advance Planning Documents and how they help
