We invite you to join us for a thought-provoking program on a broad range of end-of-life issues. This is a multidisciplinary, multisectoral, and multinational conference, with presenting disciplines including, but not limited to, law, medicine, nursing, philosophy and bioethics, and sectoral representation spanning practitioners, academics, NGOs, and regulators and policymakers. We will engage with empirical evidence about, and legal and ethical analysis of, many of the most pressing and vexing issues of our time. Leading experts from around the world will present their findings. Participants will engage with others who are wrestling with the challenges of end-of-life care. Please join us for a 3-day deep dive into stopping/ not starting potentially life-sustaining treatment, palliative sedation, medical assistance in dying, and the next generation end of life issues. FEN's Client Services Director, Lowrey Brown, will be giving a presentation during this conference. Who should attend? ICEL4 is designed for physicians, nurses, other clinicians, attorneys, historians, philosophers, professors of literature and the humanities, members of the clergy, social workers, and others engaged in endeavors related to end-of-life law, policy, ethics, and practice.

As brain function is increasingly damaged by dementia, a person begins to lose interest in or forgets to eat and drink. Eventually, they lose the ability to physically feed themselves and must be fed either artificially or by hand by a caregiver. Without specific instructions to your caregivers not to provide food or fluid, caregivers will continue to keep you fed and hydrated until you die of something else. These dementia directives were written so that you can specify that you do NOT want that.
