Description

Deciding future medical care before a crisis, and writing it down, spares families guesswork, yet many older adults never have the conversation. Lisa Bodenheimer, Jennifer Rutberg, Pat Tadel, and Jennifer DeGennaro describe a New Jersey push to spread those conversations statewide in this 2023 paper. A medical school's aging institute joined the state aging office and a national program to train the workforce.

The strategy rides on existing relationships: county case managers, nurses, and social workers who already visit older adults at home. Trainees earned certification as conversation facilitators and instructors through live virtual courses, seeding local capacity that can train others. Affordable senior housing staff joined too. The authors present partnerships, not pamphlets, as the engine that carries advance care planning into daily practice.
