We talk about advance directives a lot in medicine-what one would want when they are ill. In this poem, I try to capture the ineffability of the hypotheticals:

New open-access on FirstView: "Research Advance Directives: Ethical Implications for Persons with Alzheimer’s Disease, and for the Families of Elderly Dementia Patients" by Dean Evan Hart.
#alzheimers #dementia #AdvanceDirectives
www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
Research Advance Directives: Ethical Implications for Persons with Alzheimer’s Disease, and for the Families of Elderly Dementia Patients Dean Evan Hart Global Public Health, NYU, United States Abstract As both human longevity and diagnostic ability improve, more individuals are being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s dementia disease (Alzheimer’s). Yet there is a paucity of new Alzheimer’s research trials. One obstacle to research is the large number of Alzheimer’s patients deemed incapable of providing informed consent for clinical research. Research advance directives (RADs) offer patients the opportunity to provide informed consent before incapacity occurs. However, critics question whether RADs guarantee informed consent, claiming that due to the nature of the disease, the consenting agent is no longer the same person after becoming incapacitated. This paper assesses the debate while using a conception of personhood, informed by the latest Alzheimer’s research, which does not reduce the concept of personhood to psychological capacities. It explains how personal identity can persist despite Alzheimer’s, such that RADs can and should suffice for informed consent. Keywords: Alzheimer’s; Palliative Care; Dementia; Advance Directives; Neurodegeneration

Some days it's just really hard to not feel like we're trying to hold back a tsunami...and not doing a great job.

A bit of irony though: tomorrow is an All Staff meeting for all departments of the health center, and I offered to do a bit on #AdvanceCarePlanning and #AdvanceDirectives

If you don’t put your wishes in writing, the law will decide for you. And those decisions might not reflect what you truly want.

Planning ensures your voice is heard, even when you can’t speak for yourself.
