End of Life Planning
The only time you don’t have a choice is when you haven’t made one!

Help with end of life planning, and completing your legal documents, so you can have your choices known and wishes followed
Planning can allow you to:
- Take control
- Ease the burden on you and those you care about
- Have a system in place to update plans according to situation changes
- Have peace of mind
- Protect your wishes
- Security - freedom from unwanted coercive changes to your wishes
- Have it all prepared, shared, and stored
Lauren Newman of Tree of Life Services can assist you in knowing what is required to be done for end of life and the completion of your legal documents so you can have your choices known and wishes followed (each state in Australia has different legal and statutory requirements for ‘paperwork’ and legal documents empowering who you choose to support you for your end of life).
Whether you have received a terminal or life-limiting diagnosis or are in the process of preparing your end of life documents in readiness, Tree of Life Services is able to support you through the process of advance planning.
Advanced Planning is a structured approach to exploring your end of life preferences and options. Future medical treatment, preferred lifestyle, health needs, and hard limits for care and funeral preparations are all considered so your wishes are as clearly articulated as possible for those who will be in charge of your estate and effects.
By formalising your plan in writing, and signing your paperwork, your family, friends, carers, and doctors can understand how you would like to be cared for. Provide you information about many of the choices you have both for living, and for after death.
Lauren provides support for you in your right to choose an end of life that is meaningful to you and consistent with your belief system and values (ethnic, cultural, religious/spiritual or personal).
Advocates for, and guide all involved through the medical/hospital/nursing world ensuring that you know all you need to and be your liaison, your ‘interpreter’ with your medical and other support teams.
As a NSW Justice of the Peace, Lauren can witness documents.
