Advance Care Planning Training

Module 1: Introduction to Advance Care Planning

This module serves as an essential introduction to Advance Care Planning (ACP). You will learn what ACP is, why it is important, and why now is the right time to start planning. We explore the fundamental concepts of ACP, including the benefits of having a plan in place and the impact it can have on your healthcare journey. This training is designed to help you understand the significance of ACP and motivate you to take the first steps in documenting your healthcare preferences.

Module 2: What Matters: Reflecting on Values, Beliefs, and Preferences

This module focuses on the critical aspect of identifying what matters most to you in your healthcare journey. You will be guided through a process of reflecting on your personal values, beliefs, and medical preferences. Additionally, this module will help you identify and choose a healthcare agent—someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so. By the end of this training, you will have a clearer understanding of your priorities and how to communicate them effectively.

Module 3: Completing and Sharing Your Plan

This module is dedicated to the final steps of Advance Care Planning: legally documenting your wishes and effectively communicating them to your family and healthcare providers. You will learn how to complete the necessary legal documents, such as advance directives and living wills, ensuring your healthcare preferences are formally recognized. Additionally, we provide strategies for sharing your plan with those who need to know, ensuring your wishes are understood and respected when the time comes.
