How to ensure that residents of a multilevel long-term care facility are able to indicate treatment preferences for the future (when they will be unable to participate in decision making).
To review the methods used to create a "living will" document suitable for a long-term care population that can be used as a guide and template for other long-term care populations.
The process includes gathering information, developing possible models, designing the document, the review process, and implementing the document.
Developing a living will document is not a simple process. The design should suit the population for whom the document is developed. Primary care physicians, other health care providers, and clergy should provide input.
