1 Begin with the End in Mind: Health Information Technology as a link to honoring a person s advance directive Carol Robinson DNP, MS, BSN, RN, CHPN Community Coordinator, MCM Mary Graham, LMSW Manager of Community Engagement, GLHC 1

2 Making Choices Michigan 10/23/2018 Community-based, 501 (c)(3); wholly-owned subsidiary of Great Lakes Health Connect Goal: Move the ACP conversation from the healthcare environment to the community-at-large Vision: foster a community culture where it is acceptable to talk about health care choices, including end of life, and to respect and honor those choices. Mission: encourage and facilitate advance health care planning by the people of Michigan. 2

3 Advance Care Planning (ACP) Discuss Reflect on your values and beliefs Decide Choose your Patient Advocate(s) Document Write your wishes in an Advance Directive (Durable Power of Attorney for Healthcare) Share your plan 3

4 Advance Care Planning Is important for all adults, 18+ It is thinking and talking about future healthcare decisions Prepares your Patient Advocate(s) to speak for you if you cannot (e.g. car accident or illness) 4

5 Living Well If you were having a good day What would happen on that day? Who would you talk to? What would you do? 5

6 Three Decisions: 1. What personal beliefs do you have that might impact your decisions? For example: What does your family think about quality versus quantity of life? What do you think about it? Who makes the important decisions in your family? Do you have a faith belief? If you do not, does your family? Could their beliefs impact decisions about your care? 2. What healthcare would you like to receive if you have a severe, permanent brain injury? 3. Who do you want to choose as your Patient Advocate(s)? 6

7 Exploring Goals of Treatment Imagine this scenario: A sudden event (such as a car accident or illness) leaves you unable to communicate. You are receiving all the care needed to keep you alive. The doctors believe there is little chance you will ever recover the ability to know who you are or who you are with.. 7

8 Explore your end of life beliefs 1. What personal beliefs do you have that might help you choose the care you want or do not want? Visitors, lighting, quiet, finances, being home? 2. Would certain practices give you comfort? Prayer, music, readings, certain foods, pets? 3. Would you like to talk to someone about these beliefs or concerns? 8

9 Next Steps Follow-up items Talk with your Patient Advocate Meet with a MCM Facilitator Complete an Advance Directive 9
