| Opening The Conversation |
| Having an advance care planning conversation with someone may lead to one or more of the points mentioned in this booklet. |
A conversation about advance care planning may be prompted by:
• The wish to make plans just in case something unexpected happens
• Planning for the future or for retirement
• Following the diagnosis of a serious or long term condition
• After the death of a spouse, partner or friend. |
 |
| Not everyone will want to engage in such a conversation and that is fine. |
