Advance Care Planning (Asia)

Video is Loading...

Advance Care Planning (ACP) involves conversations between healthcare professionals, patients and their family members about the patient's future healthcare plans. ACP is beneficial for everyone, regardless of one’s age or health status. Having these discussions can facilitate decision-making during a crisis and ensure that medical decisions are made according to the patient’s wishes and best interests.

In these 'Speaking from Experience' video clips, people discuss their experiences of creating an Advance Care Plan, and the benefits of having one in place. They were produced in partnership with Khoo Teck Puat Hospital (KTPH).
