What are advance care plans?
Advance care planning sets out your choices, giving your whanau and healthcare team a plan to follow if you are later unable to make your own decisions understood.
We can guide you in the kinds of conversations you need to have, provide an advance health care plan form for you to complete, and give you more information about your options for future health care.
The benefits of advance care plans
- A record of what you want, so it’s clear what health care you want, even if you later become unable to express yourself
- A clear plan that you can show to your whānau and health care team
- Peace of mind for the future – whatever happens, your wishes are spelled out
- Advance care planning in end of life care can also make your final days less upsetting for your loved ones
- Everything will be captured on an NZ Advance care plan form
Some questions to consider
Do you want to know only the basics about your health conditions, or all the details?
If your doctor could make an estimate for how long you had to live, would you want to know?
How much information do you want your loved ones to receive about your condition?
Would you like to appoint a loved one to make decisions on your behalf (an Enduring Power of Attorney or personal EPoA)?
If you are dying, where would you like to be?
Would you like to be noted down as an organ donor?
During your appointment we can capture your preferences on an NZ advance care plan form. Finally, if you need help managing a long term condition or Palliative Care Support, we can also help.
