Description

Anticipatory Care Planning (ACP) is a key workstream within the Living Well in Communities portfolio, focussed on building improved models of care across Scotland.

Following the success of ‘ACP: A Call for Action’, our first national Anticipatory Care Planning event, we have made progress in developing ACP documentation, the ACP mobile app and a range of education modules. A national ACP Programme Board has also been established to support delivery across Scotland.

We invite you to participate in our second event – ACP: Time to Make it Happen - to learn more about these exciting developments over the last 6 months, discuss current initiatives and help influence next year’s ACP priorities.

The morning sessions give practitioners the opportunity to showcase the innovative work they are leading locally, supporting individuals of all ages. Further details about the workshops will follow soon.

The afternoon session will be a unique opportunity to view ‘Seven Songs for a Long Life, Dr Amy Hardies’ critically acclaimed documentary exploring our changing relationship with death. Seven Songs had its North American premiere at the SXSW festival in March, and Amy is currently showcasing the film internationally. She will be facilitating a workshop at our event.

We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday 16 November at the Royal College of Surgeons, Edinburgh.

An agenda and further information about this event will follow shortly.
