Session 5: ‘Advanced care planning and how to approach ReSPECT discussions’

Session Overview: In this session we will discuss the importance of prioritising advanced care planning in older adults at all stages of frailty and suitable ceilings of treatment. We will share approaches to ReSPECT discussions and tools to support patients and their carers in making these decisions. This session is aimed at any member of the multidisciplinary team (clinical or non-clinical) who may be involved in these discussions or support patients and carers with care planning.

These sessions are facilitated by Charlotte Marley and other members of our expert multidisciplinary training team.

Charlotte is a Senior Physician Associate working clinically in Care of the Elderly teams in Gloucestershire and the Education and Training Lead for the Training Hub. She has a specialist interest in Frailty and is soon to complete a Diploma in Geriatric Medicine with the RCP and British Geriatric Society.
