Information Workshop About Green Sleeve
An accident or medical crisis can happen to anyone, of any age, at any time.
In this workshop, presenters from Coast Hospice will introduce you to the Sunshine Coast Green Sleeve and explore the steps involved in making an advance care plan. Advance care planning (ACP) is a process of thinking ahead about the type of health and personal care decisions you would like to receive if you get injured or very sick and cannot speak for yourself. The Green Sleeve is a place to store your ACP documents. Putting a plan in place will help ensure you get the care you want, and it will help your family at a difficult time. All participants will receive a Green Sleeve package.
This workshop is also accessible live via Zoom.

The Green Sleeve Initiative
Program launched in 2022
Think of the Green Sleeve as your healthcare passport. It’s a place to store your medical information and advance care plan (ACP) documents in case of a medical emergency or a decline in your health.
Developing your advance care plan is an important process for communicating your wishes for future care. Putting a plan in place will help ensure you get the care you want, and it will help your family at a difficult time.
Bring your Green Sleeve to medical appointments or your trip to the hospital. Store it safely at home on or near the fridge, where paramedics and family know to find it during an emergency. Your Green Sleeve will speak for you if you are too ill or injured to speak for yourself.
