Advance Care Planning

What is Advance Care Planning?

Advance Care Planning (ACP) is a process to help you identify your health care choices and communicate them to your family and your health care providers. Early conversations and advance care planning with Hospice of the Foothills’ skilled professionals can ease fears, confusion, and concerns regarding end-of-life care.

Advance Care Planning involves:

  • Understanding possible future healthcare choices

  • Considering what is important to you and your values

  • Talking about your decisions with loved ones and your physician

  • Writing down your plans in advance directives

Most likely, this will be an ongoing process that takes more than one conversation. The goal of advance care planning is for you to live well, in a way that is meaningful to you, for as long as you live.
