Join us for our July Community Education Dinner! The topic is Advance Care Planning. Our speaker, Mary Ellen Biggerstaff, DNP, is a primary care provider at Summit Pacific Healthcare Clinic in Elma. Mary Ellen will be speaking about the importance of having our medical wishes known with those we love throughout all stages of our lives.
An Advance Directive is a written statement of your wishes regarding medical treatment, often including a living will, made to ensure those wishes are carried out should you be unable to communicate them. Advance Directives also ensure that your loved ones are not burdened with making stressful decisions.
Guests will be treated to complimentary dinner from Café Salute! No RSVP required.
Doctors in our area are retiring or leaving the Harbor; finding primary care providers is harder than ever. Our panel includes people who work in the healthcare and insurance industries to facilitate discussion on where we are today, as well as what we can do to improve the future of healthcare in our county and state.

As part of the Great Washington ShakeOut, tsunami alert sirens will be tested at 10:19 a.m. using the real sound of the siren, not the Westminster Chimes that typically happen during the monthly tests. NOAA weather radios set to receive the required monthly test will also activate during this test. The tests will happen across every coastal community in the state, except for Sandy Point in Whatcom County, which has opted out of the test. The state works with local jurisdictions to install the All Hazard Alert Broadcast sirens on the coast. Five new sirens are being installed this month in Seabrook, Ocean Shores, Bellingham, Port of Chinook and Raymond bringing the total number of coastal sirens to 69.
