A Social Worker’s Perspective on the Importance of Advance Care Planning
Advance Care Planning is the process of coming to understand, reflect on, discuss and plan for a time when you cannot make your own medical decisions. While we cannot plan for everything, we can talk with our loved ones about what matters most to us. As social workers, it is crucial that we understand Advance Care Planning and are able to articulate its importance to our clients. Advance Care Planning is the epitome of self-determination and by encouraging our clients to have these conversations, they are in a position where they have the most control over their healthcare.
Objectives:
You will be able to define Advance Care Planning as well as various types of Advance Care Planning documents
You will understand some of the decisions that need to be made when completing a Healthcare Power of Attorney
You will be able to explain why Advance Care Planning promotes self-determination
