The Advance Care Planning process of appointing a MTDM and completing an ACD allows you to reflect on what is important to you about life. Reflecting on your values about life is a positive and reassuring process. Advance Care Planning also provides you with the tools to retain personal autonomy and dignity as you near life’s end. Conversations about your end-of-life wishes with those you love is an essential aspect of Advance Care Planning; the process provides a framework to discuss death and options about the end-of-life in a caring and pragmatic fashion.
