Advance Care Planning

Hospital Authority

In the Hospital Authority setting, ACP and AD are mainly for patients with advanced irreversible illnesses. For people without advanced irreversible illnesses, it is not easy for them to make decisions and sign an AD applicable to conditions other than being in a persistent vegetative state or in an irreversible coma.

If a relatively healthy patient asks for an ACP in HA, the doctor may ask the patient to seek help from non-government organizations or the private sector.
