Advance Care Planning for Seniors Diagnosed with Dementia: A Scoping Review of the Canadian Literature.

Advance care planning (ACP) is commonly recommended for persons living with dementia. Increasing age and uncertain disease trajectory add complexity to this process. A scoping review of the Canadian literature was completed to assess the feasibility and acceptability of ACP for seniors (≥ 65 years of age) diagnosed with dementia and to provide practice, policy, and research recommendations towards ACP as a critical aspect of care.
