Advance Care Planning(ACP)has long been a staple of caring for people with serious illness. Over its history, it has been defined in different ways. Clinicians, researchers, patients, and the public have developed a variety of perspectives about the many aspects of ACP, ranging from the definition to the timing, goals, outcomes, and value of ACP. To better understand the challenges and opportunities for ACP, acknowledge and highlight divergent viewpoints, and examine what is empirically known and not known about ACP and its outcomes, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Roundtable on Quality Care for People with Serious Illness hosted a virtual public workshop, Advance Care Planning: Challenges and Opportunities, on October 26 and November 2, 2020. The workshop explored the paradox of ACP, its evidence base, ways to think differently about ACP, and various approaches to making it more effective.This Proceedings of a Workshop summarizes the presentations and discussions from that workshop.

Advance Care Planning (ACP) is an essential part of end of life care in the UK and most developed countries. It enables more people to live well and die as they would choose, and has significant implications for the individual person, their family and carers, and our wider society. In the context of an ageing population and increasing possibilities for medical interventions, ACP is a particularly important aspect of quality care. Expanded and fully updated throughout, this new edition gives a comprehensive overview of ACP and explores a wide range of issues and practicalities in providing end of life care. Written by experts from around the world, the book takes a comprehensive look at the subject by exploring the wide range of issues and practicalities in providing ACP; framing the purpose, process, and outcomes of these plans; and providing an important update on national and international research, policy and practice. Chapters also discuss values, goals and priorities, and include detailed case examples to aid best practice. This book is an invaluable resource for all clinicians involved in the caring for people in their final stages of life. It is of particular value to GPs, palliative care specialists, geriatricians, social care teams, researchers and policy leads interested in improving end of life care.

The 21st century is facing an unprecedented trend of population aging, including in many regions in the Asia Pacific region. Governments and healthcare systems recognise the importance of Advance Care Planning (ACP) in helping people to live well and to leave well.ACP is a complex intervention that is culture and context specific. In our universal endeavour to engender person centred care in healthcare systems and a more compassionate society, we are more similar than different. In this day and age of fast developing medical technologies and evolving social norms, ACP brims with both challenges and potential and a renewed understanding is needed.This book is a paean to the multifaceted nature of ACP as well as a timely update regarding the current landscape of ACP implementation and practice across the Asia Pacific region.

This thesis explores the perceptions of Japanese community registered nurses towards the use of advance care planning (ACP). The Japanese government has introduced new guidelines for end-of-life care which now includes the concept of ACP. However, unlike Australia, Japan does not have a legal framework to support ACP. Advance Care Planning is indeed a new concept in Japan and a controversial topic among medical professionals. The researcher attended the 7th Advance Care Planning International (ACPI) conference in Rotterdam 2019 to gain knowledge of the various global perspectives on ACP. The 250 participants from 25 countries demonstrated a strong interest and enthusiasm for the benefits of ACP (ACPI, 2019). As a result of attending this conference, it became clear that there is a need for research exploring the various cultural issues involved in the understanding of ACP around the world. From both the researcher's attendance at the conference and her own presentations at public lectures in Japan, it became apparent that ACP is urgently needed as a tool for individual decision-making, and that health professionals should take the lead in talking more openly about ACP. Health professional leadership in this area should support a change in both public opinion and culture in Japan. This study was informed by the qualitative methodology of interpretive description, which involved interviewing 11 community registered nurses. The results showed that the majority of community registered nurses interviewed ACP to be of high importance; however, they were not sure how to use ACP in their role as community registered nurses. There were also difficulties in adopting ACP arising from differing cultural contexts and backgrounds between the use of ACP in Australia and Japan. The results from this study emphasised the need for the establishment of governmental policy, clear documentation, further education, and training in assertive communication. Advance Care Planning is the key to improving the quality of the end of life for Japanese people and it will ensure more information about decision-making in the future. This research may encourage the development of a new policy, establishing both a definition of ACP and standardised documentation.

The fundamental aspects of the way we die has changed with our medical and technological advances. Before the advancement of medicine, people died at home with their loved ones as caregivers. Today, while most people wish to die at home, the majority of people now die in hospitals and extended care facilities after prolonged illnesses. Patients and families now often face health crises, and during these there are times when patients are unable to speak for themselves. Research has shown that advance care planning increases compliance with patient wishes, resolves family and patient distress, and provides a guideline for medical staff to determine appropriate treatment modalities and to respect patient's wishes. Social workers are often trying to mediate the differences between what a family wants and what a patient wants. When advance care planning has not been completed the social workers advocate for patients. In order to increase completion rates and decrease difficult situations facing social workers during crises an advance care planning class was created at St. Joseph's Medical Center in San Joaquin County. This class was hosted by a social worker and a palliative care team which included two RNs and one physician. The overall response was overwhelmingly positive and the main recommendations were to advertise the class more, to offer it at extended care facilities in the area and to offer it year round. Videos to assist the material were shown during these classes and were determined to be exceedingly helpful despite the difficult material.
