Advance Care Planning (ACP) is an ongoing discussion with your loved ones on your preferred healthcare treatments. We facilitate discussions with patients to explore on the following issues:

  • Your understanding of your medical condition and its potential complications
  • Your concept of living well
  • Your experiences in living well
  • Your values and goals in life
  • Your goals in medical treatments
  • Identify a nominated healthcare spokesperson healthcare proxy who will help make decisions on your behalf when you are not able to speak for yourself
  • During the discussion, it is encouraged to have your nominated healthcare spokesperson present so that he/she is aware of your treatment preferences
  • Communicate your preferences to your loved ones so that they can honor your wishes
