2 The North West End of Life Care Model Advance Care planning has been defined as a process of discussion between an individual, their care providers, and often those close to them, about future care. The discussion may lead to: An advance statement of wishes and preferences: Example: the Preferred Priorities for Care (PPC) document is a patient held record that is designed to facilitate patient choice in relation to end of life issues. This document is helpful not only for the patient but for the professional as it aids discussion and ensures the wishes and needs of the patients fully discussed and addressed. An advance decision to refuse treatment (ADRT a specific refusal of treatment(s) in a predefined potential future situation): Example: A document is available and guidance can be sort for a professional on the National End of Life Care Programme website on how to action this. It is important that when this is raised by the patient they are fully informed and have mental capacity to make the decision(s) they desire. The appointment of a personal welfare Lasting Power of Attorney(LPA): Example: This is the person that a patient will choose and appoint to make decisions on their behalf about either their health and welfare or property and financial affairs or both. It is important that the patient is aware of this facility which ensures that if and when they are unable to make informed choices, their wishes and preferences are taken into consideration. All or any of these can help inform care providers should the individual lose capacity. These terms supersede previous phrases such as living wills and advance directives. Advance decisions to refuse treatment only come into force if an individual loses capacity. The presence of an ACP or ADRT document does not override the decision of a competent individual.ref- RCP Section 12; Concise Guidance to Good Practice Feb 2009 The model comprises five phases as described below with some examples of practice highlighted. The model of delivery advocated by the clinical pathway group uses a whole systems approach for all adults with a life limiting disease regardless of age and setting, moving from recognition of need for end of life care, to care after death. In order to apply the model, staff across organisations is required to understand the needs and experiences of people and their carers. The pathway model identifies five key phases: Final version 28 h April 2010 updated 20 th May
3 1. Advancing disease timeframe 1 year or more. Example of practice required -the person is placed on a supportive care register in General Practitioner (GP) practice/care home. The person is discussed at monthly multidisciplinary practice/care home meetings. The patient is put on the Gold Standards Framework(GSF) or Keeping Improving the Experience(KITE) 2. Increasing decline timeframe 6 months [approximate]. Example of practice required -. DS1500 eligibility review of benefits, Preferred Priorities for Care (PPC) noted, Advance Care Plan (ACP) in place and trigger for continuing healthcare funding assessment. 3. Last days of life timeframe last few days. Examples of practice required - primary care team/care home inform community and out of hours services about the person who should be seen by a doctor. End of life drugs prescribed and obtained, and Liverpool Care Pathway (LCP) implemented 4. First days after death timeframe first few days. Examples of practice required include prompt verification and certification of death, relatives being given information on what to do after a death (including D49 leaflet), how to register the death and how to contact funeral directors 5.
