Ways for your health care wishes to be known: Advance Care Planning and Goals of Care

Advance Care Planning is the process of thinking about, talking about, and documenting your wishes for health care. It is how you can have your wishes known by those close to you should you become unwell or unable to speak for yourself. This session provided information on the Advance Care Planning process, writing a Personal Directive, and an overview of the Goals of Care framework used to guide medical decision making in Alberta.
