A Forum for the General Public: Dying to Know about Dying Matters?

Krisca Gould from Nelson Tasman Hospice

Thursday 20th February 2025, 1pm - 4pm at Nelson Tasman Hospice

Talking about it more, worrying about it less. A workshop the general public can attend.

This forum is for the general public to attend and is not designed for Health Professionals.

Many people find it difficult to talk about dying, yet dying is an important stage of life and is inevitable.

We plan for the birth of a child, yet when it comes to the end of life, we don’t often want to think about it, or talk about it.

Having a plan outlines our care preferences for the future. Having an Advance Care Plan (ACP) that aligns with our beliefs and values, is a gift that we can give to our family / whānau.

Come along to our workshop and find out more about dying matters, how an ACP can benefit you and your family/whānau and what to expect at the end of life.

We will explore:

– Why is it hard to talk about death and dying?
– What to expect when someone is dying
– Supports available
– Advance care planning processes

This is a free workshop, however space is limited so registration is essential.

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
