Summary

The aims of this study are to examine the effectiveness of a multi-media experiential training programme in advance care planning (ACP) for nursing staff in acute care settings. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* can the programme enhance nurses' decision-support skills
* can the programme strengthen nurses' knowledge and confidence, and improve their attitude toward ACP?

Researchers will compare the participants in the intervention group (receive training programme) with those who are in the control group (receive no intervention) to evaluate the effectiveness of the programme.
