Ashlee Health
Compassionate conversations. Plan what matters.
Ashlee helps you say what matters for your care, in your own words, while you can still say it. So that no one is left guessing.
When someone becomes seriously ill and cannot speak for themselves, the people close to them are left guessing what they would have wanted. Ashlee Health exists so they do not have to guess.
You talk with Ashlee. Ashlee listens, and writes a Value Portrait: a cited document where every sentence traces back to something you actually said. Nothing is invented. Nothing is assumed.
When the hardest medical decisions arrive, most patients can no longer speak for themselves, and the people who love them are left guessing unless those wishes were recorded ahead of time.

The real work
A conversation becomes a cited document.
The conversation
Ashlee asks about what makes a day good, who speaks for you, and what you want people to know if you could not speak for yourself. You can talk by text or by voice. You can stop at any time.
The Value Portrait
After you review what was captured, Ashlee prepares a shareable portrait for the clinician and the person who speaks for you. It is informational. It is not medical or legal advice.
Who it is for
Patients and residents who want their values on the record. The person who will speak for them. Clinical staff at participating long-term care and community health organizations.
