Feasibility of hospital-initiated non-facilitator assisted advance care planning documentation for patients with palliative care needs | BMC Palliative Care | Full Text


Description

Advance Care Planning (ACP) and its documentation, accessible to healthcare professionals regardless of where patients are staying, can improve palliative care. ACP is usually performed by trained facilitators. However, ACP conversations would be more tailored to a patient’s specific situation if held by a patient’s clinical healthcare team. This study assesses the feasibility of ACP by a patient’s clinical healthcare team, and analyses the documented information including current and future problems within the palliative care domains.
