Abstract:
Background: The Patient Self-Determination Act (PSDA) requires hospitals, home health agencies, nursing homes, and hospice providers to offer new patients information about advance directives. There is little evidence regarding whether encounters with these health-care providers prompt advance directive completion by patients. Objective: To examine whether encounters with various types of health-care providers were associated with higher odds of completing advance directives by older patients. Method: Logistic regression using longitudinal data from the 2012 and 2014 waves of the Health and Re

Abstract:
Advance care directives for health care have been promoted as a way to improve end-of-life decision making. These documents allow a patient to state, in advance of incapacity, the types of medical treatments they would like to receive (a living will), to name a surrogate to make those decisions (a durable power of attorney for health care), or to do both. Although studies have shown that both physicians and patients generally have positive attitudes about the use of these documents, relatively few individuals have actually completed one.What underlies this discrepancy between attitudes and beh

None of those patients had advance directives. In November and December 2019, all oncology patient charts were reviewed and only 7% (12/174) had advance directives. We believe an established advance directive could have helped avoid unnecessary hospitalization, improved end of life care and reduced wasteful health care costs.

Abstract:
Psychiatric advance directives (PADs) have been legally defined in 12 states and implemented in all but 9. PADs may prevent unwanted treatment and identify preferred treatment. They may also allow mentally ill persons to exercise autonomous control over care even during periods of illness-induced incompetence. PADs can be beneficial for intermittently psychotic patients who have a trusted health care provider and a surrogate decision maker. Because of the growing interest in the use of PADs, nurses should be informed about the intended purposes, benefits, and drawbacks of them.

This thesis conducts a comparative study of how advance directives for treatment for mental illness are regulated in Australia. It considers whether the legal prerequisites for making a mental health advance directive – capacity and voluntariness – are effective in promoting autonomy in decision-making by people with mental illness. It concludes that they are overly focussed on rationality and external controlling factors, and proposes reform of the current legal framework to also recognise the impact of internal controlling factors (such as delusional false beliefs, serious mood distortions a
