(Indiana University) It can be challenging to determine whether medical care provided in a hospital or nursing home is consistent with preferences of patient and family as indicated in the patient's advance planning documents. Clinician-researchers from the Regenstrief Institute, Indiana University Center for Aging Research and IU School of Nursing explore these challenges, discuss related metrics and make practical recommendations for overcoming barriers to honoring patient preferences.
