Agency: A Sacred Passing

Having someone to help you navigate the complex web of the current health care system is a valuable addition to your support team. As part of our Consultation Services staff from A Sacred Passing can serve in the role of Advocate, Ally or Companion to help you with those possibly confusing and difficult conversations:

·       Talking with your Doctor or Medical providers about your options

·       Talking with family members about your choices

·       Talking to your friends or community members

·       Talking with children about an upcoming death or a past death of a friend or family member.

We also can take on the assignment as your Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care (AKA Health Agent) designation. Sometimes the responsibility to answer questions and make medical related decisions on your behalf needs to rest on the shoulders of a non-biased third party.
