Advance Care Planning (ACP) is the process by which you determine your wishes in regard to medical care and treatment including the designation of a health care representative. These wishes can be expressed through several types of legal documents.

Click here to visit the Indiana Patient Preferences Coalition, where you can find copies of the legally recognized ACP documents.

ACP is completely voluntary, so you may choose to fill out as many of these forms as you'd like. However, the more information you provide, the more you reduce the risk of receiving treatment you don't want.

For questions and help filling out the forms, just call the Aging & Disability Resource Center.

Check out this video to learn more about ACP!
