If you have not yet discussed how you should be treated and cared for during the final hours of your life, you could be one among the few, not many, says a study led by an Indian-origin researcher.
More people are today engaging in advance care planning that includes discussing and providing written end-of-life care instructions and appointing a durable power-of-attorney for health care, the findings showed.And when individuals share their end-of-life preferences with loved ones, they're more likely to have their wishes honoured, said lead author Nidhi Khosla, assistant professor at the University of Missouri"Advance care planning increases the likelihood that the care one receives at the end of her life is congruent with what she wants," Khosla explained.
