Partnership with Hope Hospice & Palliative Care: Adapting the Complex Care Conversations Training (CCCT) for caretakers in the community

Description

Abstract:
Hope Hospice and Palliative Care is a non-profit organization providing support for patients and their families through all stages of illness through hospice care, palliative care, home care, and dementia and Alzheimer’s support services. The goal of this partnership is to establish a curriculum to help family members and caretakers in the community discuss end-of-life care with loved ones living with serious progressive illnesses, based on the CCCT model and informed by current gaps in the existing body of resources. Long-term goals 1) Increasing proportion of patients with a designated Health Care Proxy or Durable Power of Attorney 2) Increasing proportion of patients who have completed an Advance Directive 3) Increasing hospice length of stay (i.e. initiating hospice earlier in disease course).
