Webinar: FTD Care Planning with Essential Legal Documents
August 27, 2020 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm EDT
Navigating care after an FTD diagnosis can be like facing rough, uncharted waters. This webinar provides information on ways to prepare for this challenging journey, highlighting the use of two essential documents: power of attorney and advance directives. Please join AFTD as we discuss advance care planning in FTD with guest experts Bryan J. Adler, Esq., a certified elder law attorney from the Rothkoff Law Group, and Cynthia Clyburn, MSW, LCSW, from the University of Pennsylvania’s Neurology Center.
In this webinar participants will learn:
- The legal definition of capacity and the “grey area” as it relates to FTD and power of attorney
- What power of attorney and advance directives can and can’t do legally
- Resources and tips to help caregivers form a successful FTD advance care plan
- How to identify when more guidance around guardianship/conservatorship may be needed and where to get it
