Description

Kaipeng Wang and co-authors survey views on advance directives among older Southeast Asian adults in the United States, in a study from 2023. Such forms let a person state end of life care wishes ahead of time and spare kin hard choices. Older Asian adults fill them out at low rates, and this group had been little studied on its own.

The survey reached 251 adults aged fifty five and up who named themselves as Vietnamese, Filipino, or Indonesian. Filipino and Indonesian adults held warmer views of the forms than Vietnamese adults. Warm views tracked with tight family bonds, hope of support from the young, low mood, and bounce back strength. Fear of death tracked with cooler views. The authors urge care plans shaped to each culture.
