Identifying Residents who require end of life
• Focus on the resident's needs• Right care at the right time• Planning care for resident’s anticipated needs• North West end of life care model used as a
guide to aide the process• Used to promote discussion and planning• It is not intended to be accurate in prediction• Resident’s can move up and down

The Surprise Question
“Would I be surprised if the person In front of me was to die in the next …year?”
?

Rainy day thinking

Advance Care Plan
“Advance care planning (ACP) is a voluntary process of discussion about future care
between an individual and their care providers, irrespective of discipline”
It involves residents and their carers in discussions around end of life care and must be person-centred, never forced
![Page 14: Facilitator: Helen O’Neil Palliative Care Tutor: Jenny Lowe.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551bbee0550346af588b4958/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Advance Care Planning.Discussion may include:• Concerns and wishes• Important values, care goals• Understanding about their illness, prognosis• Preferences/wishes for care in the future,
availability of this care
Documentation – Preferred Priorities for Care
![Page 15: Facilitator: Helen O’Neil Palliative Care Tutor: Jenny Lowe.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551bbee0550346af588b4958/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
1. What might be the barriers to talking about Advance Care Plans?
2. How might you know when it’s the “right time?”
![Page 16: Facilitator: Helen O’Neil Palliative Care Tutor: Jenny Lowe.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551bbee0550346af588b4958/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Advance Care Planning .Communication issues:• Fear of making it happen• Fear of upsetting residents, families, causing
arguments• Whose responsibility is it? (avoidance)• Fear of being misunderstood/misquoted• Upsetting - unleashing strong emotions• Lack of knowledge / our vulnerability• Difficult questions• Invading privacy
![Page 17: Facilitator: Helen O’Neil Palliative Care Tutor: Jenny Lowe.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062417/551bbee0550346af588b4958/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
When is the “right time?”• It must be person-centred - timing is everything • Opportunistic conversations• Two weeks after they have arrived as a matter of course?• “They’ve got this new programme in the North West that all care homes are doing”…. – what do you think?”• Don’t forget, it’s an on-going dialogue
Trust your intuition
