Description

Health-related quality of life (QOL) has a unique meaning to every patient and caregiver. Bridging the gap between QOL and goals of care (GOC) can be seamless when the expectations are clearly communicated and consistently honored. A patient crisis is not the time to discuss advanced care planning (ACP) and GOC.

Engaging in difficult conversations with patients and families may seem taboo. Discussing goals of care prior to a crisis promotes dignity and respect to our loved ones. Fostering compassionate and open dialogue promotes dying with dignity.
