Initiation of paediatric advance care planning: Cross‐sectional survey of health professionals reported behaviour

Abstract: Background Globally, initiation of paediatric advance care planning discussions is advocated early in the illness trajectory; however, evidence suggests it occurs at crisis points or close to end of life. Few studies have been undertaken to ascertain the prevalence and determinants of behaviour related to initiation by the healthcare professional. Method Underpinned by the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation–Behaviour (COM‐B) model for behaviour change, a cross‐sectional online survey was conducted in United K… Show more

Secondly, clinicians need to have an opportunity to practice and be mentored in communication practices and conversation tools that will be family and child centered.…”
