About this listen

In this episode of Inflammation Nation, Gráinne O’Leary meets Dr Ruth Usher, lecturer in occupational therapy in University College Cork to discuss the Advanced Healthcare Directive. They discuss the steps involved in creating one, including the legal formalities, the role of healthcare professionals, and the significance of appointing a designated healthcare representative. They also have an in-depth discussion about Enduring Power of Attorney, a legal arrangement that enables you to appoint someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf if you lose the capacity to do so. They walk through the process of setting up an Enduring Power of Attorney, the legal requirements, and the importance of choosing the right person for this role. Ruth emphasises the importance of planning well ahead to ensure your wishes are honoured and to provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones.
