Advance care planning (ACP) is a process that involves making decisions about your future health care. ACP typically involves discussions between individuals, family members and the healthcare provider team to understand and document a person’s values, preferences and goals for medical treatment. This is especially important in situations where the individual may not be able to communicate or make decisions due to illness or incapacitation.
