Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Future care planning, previously known as Anticipatory Care Planning (ACP), helps you to make informed choices about how and where you want to be treated and supported in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Health and care practitioners will work with you and those close to you to understand what matters most to you, to ensure the right thing is done at the right time by the right person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making plans in advance means there’s less to think about if you become unwell. It’s never too soon to think about what you’d like to happen if you get ill, or your health condition gets worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
