Advance Care Planning

Regular price £18.99

Thinking about and planning for the end of life.

Sometimes we don't know how to begin the conversation or don't know what to discuss.

Start important conversations about end of life care
48 Questions to help you share
  • what matters to you now and at the end of your life
  • how you like to talk about things
  • what decisions or choices are important to you

End of life can mean the next few years, months, or weeks of life when you have an incurable illness. Thinking, discussing and writing down (advance care planning) can help you and others by being able to share what matters to you; such as how you like to live your life now and what decisions you have about future care or treatments. You are invited to use these cards to help you start, share and continue these advance care planning conversations with your family and friends, doctors, nurses and others who care for you.

 The cards are divided into colour-coded categories

  • Purple: Instructions, Information, One Page Profiles, Definitions and Wild Card.
  • Green: How I Like To Talk About Things
  • Blue: Who and What Matters To Me
  • Orange: Advance Care Planning / Still To Do
  • Pink: As I Die / Celebrating My Life

Advance Care Planning is suitable for Health and social care professionals wishing to use an evidenced-based advance care planning, person-centred resource. It is also suitable for organisations wishing to use a key resource to evaluate their interventions or to base advance care planning education programmes around a key resource.

Advance Care Planning is written by Helen Sanderson and Sarah Russell.
