Advance Care Planning in my daily practice
As a caregiver of a child with a serious condition, you want to provide the best care to your child and family in a way that suits them. It is therefore important that you explore the perspective of the child and family and support them in discovering their own preferences and goals for future care and treatment. What is important to this child and family? You also want to prepare them for the future. What options are there for the child? What should care and treatment focus on? What is needed for this child and family, even as the end of life approaches? By talking to the child and parents about the future, you can align care together with the values, preferences and goals of the child and family.
IMPACT offers you various tools to talk to children and parents about the future. There are also preparation materials for children and parents that you can refer them to. To be able to use IMPACT optimally in your practice, a two-day training has been developed. Click here for more information.
