2: Advance care planning (part 2)

  • Summary

  • In episode 2 of the Medical Law Matters podcast, Rob Tobin continues his conversation with Dr Zoë Fritz on advance care planning. Together, they delve deeper into the topic, building on part one’s foundational discussion, and explore:

    • The ReSPECT (Recommended Summary Plan for Emergency Care and Treatment) process: Its implementation across the UK and its role in aligning patient preferences with clinical judgement.
    • The timing of conversations: Identifying triggers for these discussions, including hospital admissions and significant medical procedures.
    • Ethical complexities: Balancing patient autonomy, family dynamics, and clinical recommendations in emotionally charged situations.
    • Real-life examples: Insights into how advance care planning impacts patients, families, and clinicians in practice.
    Dr Zoë Fritz also highlights the challenges of miscommunication, the importance of shared understanding, and potential innovations in documenting patient wishes. If you haven’t listened to part one yet, we recommend starting there before listening to part two.
