Learn about Advance Care Planning with the Rutgers Cancer Institute Social Work Team.
Advance Care Planning includes anything you do that helps you, your family, friends and medical team know about the care you want to receive, including but not limited to:
– Getting information on the types of treatments available; your care options
– Deciding what types of treatment you would or would not want to receive
– Sharing your personal values with your loved ones; especially what quality of life means to you.
– Completing advance directives to put into writing what treatment options you would and/or would not want, should you be unable to speak for yourself
