In this workshop, Rick Goldman is a lawyer and plain language specialist with  Éducaloi, will explain the three specific medical situations, and the five medical treatments, in which advance medical directives (AMDs) apply. He will walk you through the process of making an AMD step-by-step, from downloading and filling out the Régie Assurance Maladie du Québec (RAMQ) form for an AMD, to adding it to the register so that doctors can consult your AMDs if necessary. By the end of this workshop, you will have all the information you need to create and to register your AMDs. It’s free and easy to do! He will also discuss living wills, which are similar to AMDs but less formal.
