Advance Care Planning & Health Care Consent - Beyond the Piece of Paper. How to plan for the future without losing out on the present.
Advance care planning is one of the most popular areas of interest for older adults who want to plan for future health care substitute decision-making - but it is also one of most misunderstood areas of elder law, both by older adults and professionals alike. This seminar will ground participants with a solid understanding of the relationship between advance care planning and the law of consent. It will also raise similarities and differences in approach and in legislation across the country. Participants will learn about the 'process' of advance care planning and how to identify when health or housing policies are in conflict with the laws.
Learning Objectives:
- having a clearer understanding about the law of consent
- learning how advance care planning can occur - it's not just a piece of paper!
- understanding legal and ethical obligations raised by advance care planning
- learning about how different jurisdictions each have their own system of health and personal care substitute decision-making
- learning about how policies and protocols may be in conflict with the law and what to do to support your client in these circumstances

- This is NOT a timed quiz. Take all the time you need to consider the question and make your best selection.
- Be attentive to questions asking which statement is NOT correct, or if all statements are correct EXCEPT.
- If you have read the question carefully, your first impression of the correct answer is usually the right choice to make.
