4 Advance Care Planning (ACP) What is it? Why do we need to do it? Who should do it? When should it be done?
5 What is ACP? ACP is a Voluntary process of discussion between an individual and their care providers. It is to make clear a person s wishes in anticipation of a deterioration in the individuals condition in the future, with attendant loss of capacity to make decisions and/or ability to communicate wishes to others. National End of Life Care Programme,
6 Why do we need to do it? To identify what patients want To identify what they don t want To enable choices to be shared with key people (family, carers & professionals)
7 Activity On your post-it notes write down anything about how you would or would not want to be cared for if you were no longer able to tell your carers what you wanted. Only 1 comment per post-it
8 Who should do it? Me? You? Family? Carers? Healthcare Professionals? Everyone? No one?

10 Activity In pairs Discuss what you think your role is in initiating a conversation with a patient about the care they want (or do not want) towards the end of their life. Identify barriers to conversation for -you - the patient - family/carers
11 ACP Principles of Good Practice Review Discuss, review & update at any time, if has capacity Setting Suitable time & place Fully Informed Need to have all the relevant information Assess Capacity Must have capacity at the time the ACP is devised Aware of Limitations Be aware of your limitations and when they are reached Adequate Knowledge Are you the right person to do this?

13 Initiation of an ACP conversation The conversation should be introduced sensitively The process is voluntary Realistic account of choices should be given Families and carers may be part of the conversation if the patient wishes
14 Know your limitations! Recognise when to refer the conversation on to an experienced clinician. Know who to refer to locally. Be open with the patient about the need to refer the conversation on. Seek support from local colleagues.
15 Role play Split into groups of 3 Patient (use notes to guide role play) Professional Observer Swap roles after each scenario, so everyone has the opportunity to take each role.
