Advance Care Planning – thoughts on the future.
Nationally we are being asked to ensure that everyone with a life limiting illness has the opportunity to record their thoughts and wishes for a time when they may no longer able to make those decisions. Come and hear about the local initiative that has been developed to support this, who it is for, what the implications are for practice and how it has made a difference.
Claire Britton and Kate Butcher, Practice Development Facilitators for End of Life Care for Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust, have backgrounds in District Nursing and have been working in this current role for the past 3 years. The role involves education, and supporting practitioners to deliver quality end of life care and to ensure that patients and their families are at the centre of this care.
