What is Advance Care Planning?
Advance care planning involves the decisions you make for the future regarding your preferences for personal health care, and then letting others, such as your family and medical team, know about those decisions. The goal is to make your preferences known if you cannot express them yourself. Legal documents used in the development of an Advance Care Plan include the following:
- Advance Care Directives
- Living Wills
- Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care
- Do Not Resuscitate Order
Will Your Family Be Forced to Guess?
Without advance care planning documents, your family will be asked to make difficult decisions about your care without knowing what you would want. This puts everyone in a difficult position and sets the stage for family conflict. Advance care planning decisions cover a wide variety of topics, including the use of emergency treatments to keep you alive. Making these decisions and documenting them before a health crisis makes things easier for everyone.
Documented Preferences = Peace of Mind
