Compassion & Choices is committed to empowering people to get the care they want during a serious illness or at the end of life. One way we do that is by helping people plan well and become good advocates for themselves and their loved ones.
Advance planning helps ensure that we get the care we want and avoid what we don’t want, even if we’re unable to speak for ourselves. Use our guide to move through the process step-by-step.
