"Being Mortal" A Film Screening

Date: 
Thursday, January 21, 2016 - 1:00pm
Location: 
Event Description: 
West Marin Senior Services and the Marin County Commission on Aging
host a screening of the film Being Mortal
based on the best-selling book by Atul Gawande

 

Join us to watch the film and engage in a lively post-film panel discussion with members of the Marin County Commission on Aging

The film investigates the practice of caring for the dying, and shows how doctors are often remarkably untrained, ill-suited and uncomfortable talking about chronic illness and death with their patients.

Join us for Community Lunch at 12 PM

For more information – and to register for the lunch –
