| Annotation | The authors report on a study that sought the experiences of six family carers' views on how advance care planning contributed to end of life care for people with advanced care dementia in one care home. The family caregivers of all six residents were asked to describe the experience and care in the last few days before their relative died. Themes included: the role of the advance care plan (ACP); the place of death; use of the end of life care pathway (Liverpool Care Pathway, LCP); and the relationship with care staff. (RH). |
