Get Your Ducks in a Row – Where You Live

This free presentation with Tanya Newman, Social Worker at North Haven Hospice in Whangārei, was a part of Dying Matters Week 2024, designed to help people better prepare for end of life.

Tanya asks: ‘What practical steps can you take now, to make the end of life easier?’ Now is always a good time to understand what is (and isn’t) available, so you can plan appropriately.

The first video in this series looks at where you live, and helping you to think ahead to consider how your needs might change. Tanya talks about location, accessibility, transport options, equipment, maintenance and what it would take to be able to move.

Some information in this video may be specific to the Whangarei area. We recommend you talk to your GP about options in your local area.
