National POLST is holding a webinar October 21, "End of Life Planning: Best Practices in Using POLST," about portable medical orders for people with serious illness or advanced frailty.

The POLST form is a portable medical order that communicates treatment goals and preferences for people with serious illness or advanced frailty. POLST is implemented at the state level, and some states use other terms such as MOLST for its Medical Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment.

The webinar speakers will discuss the latest about national and state POLST practices. Speakers include:

  • Rani Snyder, Vice President, Program, The John A. Hartford Foundation
  • Amy Vandenbroucke, JD, Executive Director, National POLST
