Advance Care Planning (ACP) Services
How well do your loved ones really know you? What happens when you are terminally ill or become mentally incapacitated? Will your healthcare professionals or loved ones know how to decide on important medical or care decisions affecting you?
Make Your Wishes Known
It is not easy for anyone to make such decisions and sometimes, it may lead to anxiety or guilt
This is why it is important to do Advance Care Planning (ACP), where you communicate and/or document your values and wishes regarding your future medical care.
But first, we must learn to hold such end-of-life conversations with our loved ones. Many families may still shun talking about death as it is seen as an inauspicious and taboo subject.
However, with the COVID-19 pandemic, things have changed and there is now greater awareness about ACP. Families are increasingly more open and receptive to hold these conversations with their loved ones.
By communicating your preferences early, you can help your loved ones prepare for the unexpected and relieve some of the burden and stress they may face in having to make difficult decisions for you.
