Advance Care Planning as Key to Person-Centered Care: A Co-Design Study Involving Adults with Chronic Kidney Disease, Family Members, and Healthcare Professionals
The study provided valuable insights into the importance of supporting adults with chronic kidney disease in understanding and sharing their preferences and wishes for care and daily life and for involving family members in the ACP process to support their loved ones. Thus, an ACP intervention with a person-centered and family-focused approach was developed to improve care on an individual and family level throughout the illness trajectory. The ACP discussions were significant for adults with CKD, family members, and healthcare professionals and informed approaches to care and treatment.
