EDUCATION overview
There is increasing emphasis from government agencies and healthcare providers to improve the completion rates of Advanced Care Planning (ACP) documents. This education session will highlight the challenges in balancing community expectations with the right of individuals to make autonomous decisions regarding their health and personal care.
RACEPC and PaSCE offer ACP-specific courses that are highly recommended for facility staff. This spotlights the Residential Goals of Care (RGoC) form, its purpose, and how it should be used. Participants will understand that whilst the RGoC does not replace an Advance Health Directive (AHD) or Values and Preferences form but is used in conjunction with them.
This workshop will clarify the role of facility staff in embedding the RGoC form into practice, ensuring it benefits both residents and staff, and supports the provision of appropriate care.
