TINA AVERY is AMOREM's dietary coordinator and has been an Amorem team member for 15 years.

ACCORDING TO TINA...
—What I love most about my job is providing comfort through food for our patients and families, and being given the ability, on occasion, to re-create family heirloom recipes so that our patients feel a little bit closer to home.
—My first job was a cashier and cook at Captain D's.
—My favorite way to spend a day off is spending time with my family and friends!
—What makes me quirky? Probably my accent...I've been told by many that it is unique.

***Come work with Tina...we're looking for another cook!

Advance care planning is a process to help your loved ones know how to speak for you if you are ever unable to make your own medical decisions. It is planning for the unexpected.

AMOREM, formerly Burke Hospice and Palliative Care and Caldwell Hospice and Palliative Care, partners with Thrive, formerly the Caldwell Senior Center, to offer an advance care planning workshop at no cost to the community on the second Thursday of each month. The next workshop will be held December 11 at 1:30 p.m. at the Thrive in Lenoir.

Advance Directives: Living wills and healthcare powers of attorney are gifts to your family. Deciding, discussing and documenting your healthcare wishes helps ensure your healthcare wishes are known and honored. It also gives you peace of mind that you have made appropriate preparations. Notaries and witnesses will be available to help anyone who wishes to complete their documents at the workshop.
Space is limited and registration is required. For more information, or to register, call 828.758.2883.
