Summary

Advance care planning allows people to have their wishes taken into account even in the advanced stages of the persons' condition and at the end of life when the person may be unable to communicate. However, a recent review found an absence of high-quality guidelines for advanced care planning in dementia care. Since few evidence-based resources exist, the investigators propose a study to generate, refine, and pilot test an education information sheet designed to promote advanced care planning among families of persons with dementia.
