What is the national local and organisational agreed ways of working for advance care planning?

Nationally, advance care planning (ACP) emphasizes patient autonomy and informed decision-making, guided by policies that prioritize individual preferences in healthcare. Locally, healthcare providers collaborate with patients, families, and multidisciplinary teams to create personalized care plans that reflect these guidelines. Organizationally, there are established protocols and training for staff to ensure consistent communication and documentation of patients' wishes. These frameworks aim to enhance the quality of care and ensure that patients' values and goals are respected throughout their treatment journey.
