Welcome back! Today we're talking about Advance Care Planning. So what is an Advance Care Plan? Essentially it's a document that captures your wishes for your health and end of life, if you were unable to communicate them yourself. 

Each state has different Advanced Care Planning documents and today we talk about why they're important, what Substitute Decision Makers are and when they come into play. For more state specific information, please head to www.advancecareplanning.org.au or call 1300 208 582.

If you want to join the conversation, you can find us on Facebook @thetruthaboutageingpodcast or on Instagram @thetruthaboutageing - speak to you next week!
