Advance directives: awareness in care homes
[摘要] Advance directives are statements recorded by a competent individual containing information on health-related values and choices. They seek to extend the individuals' autonomy in anticipation of events that would subsequently compromise their ability to express themselves. Advance directives are likely to be particularly relevant to care home residents, who are may have prior experience of serious illness. We undertook a postal questionnaire survey of all managers of care homes in Leicestershire to determine their attitudes towards advance directives (Table 1), as care home managers would have a key role in facilitating advance directives for care home residents.
