A resource available through the Public Health Center of Excellence on Dementia Caregiving, called “A Guide on Advanced Care Planning Resources: For People Living with Dementia and Their Care Partners,” has been updated.

The guide contains a range of tools, materials, and information related to advanced care planning, including financial, housing, medical, legal, and palliative/hospice care assistance. This resource is the result of a comprehensive, environmental scan of available dementia-specific planning resources for advanced care.

This guide is intended to be used primarily by people living with dementia and their care partners. It should be used as a tool to help navigate and provide recommend actions for effective care, services, and considerations at various stages of cognitive impairment and dementia.
