The End-of-Life Care Program is developing a guide to accompany the revised WA Advance Health Directive (AHD). The AHD Guide will instruct people on how to complete the new AHD. The new AHD Form and Guide are due to be released in 2022.
An AHD is a legal document that enables an individual to make decisions about their future health treatments and end of life care. The new AHD Form and Guide are being developed following the recommendations from the My Life, My Choice Report and the subsequent Ministerial Expert Panel report on Advance Health Directives.
Community consultation workshops about the development of the new AHD Guide will occur from 29 November 2021 to 17 December 2021. Anyone with an interest or involvement in advance care planning is invited to participate.
The workshops offer an opportunity for stakeholders to review the Guide, have face-to-face discussions and provide feedback into the development of the new AHD Guide. There are a range of workshops for specific groups.
This consultation workshop is for consumers and carers: individuals and peak bodies.
Registration is open from 9am, with morning tea available on arrival. The workshop will commence at 9.30am and finish at 11.30am.
The workshop will be facilitated by Janelle Marr of StepBeyond Consulting.
