Advance care planning gives you the opportunity to record ahead of time, your value and preferences for care if ever you were unable to make your own decisions.
- It helps your family & health professionals to know what matters most to you and what kind of care & treatment you would or would not want.
- This helps the people around you, reduces stress and uncertainty for your loved ones, and ensures your care matches your beliefs and wishes. It is not only for people who are sick — it is for everyone, because unexpected illness or accidents can happen at any time.
