Setting Up An Advance Healthcare Directive

Join Dr. George Birchfield and advance care planning specialist Hilary Walker of Known Wishes to learn how planning ahead lets you stay in charge of all your care — including your diabetes — during an emergency, a hospital stay, or at end of life. You’ll walk away with practical tools to make sure your wishes are known, documented, and honored.

Whether you’re a longtime athlete, easing back into movement, or wondering how exercise needs shift as you age with T1D, this talk is for anyone who wants to keep moving — and keep their blood sugars steady — through every stage of life.

Whether you’re preparing for a procedure, recovering from one, or navigating steroids for another medical reason, this talk will cover what to expect before, during, and after — and how to adjust your T1D management accordingly.
