Advance Care Planning with Empath Health

Empath Health’s My Life, My Choice Advance Care Planning is a thoughtful process to share and document your decisions for life-prolonging procedures and interventions when you are unable to speak and unlikely to recover. This is a valuable tool helps your family through this difficult time, giving them the information and peace they need to confidently carry out your wishes.

Planning involves:

• Learning about the options available to you
• Reflecting on your values, cultural and spiritual beliefs, and treatment preferences and goals
• Discussing your wishes with loved ones and healthcare providers
• Choosing a decision maker and documenting your wishes in a legal document called a living will
• Sharing copies of your plan with your healthcare surrogate, loved ones and providers
