Background: An evidence-based project was performed to train and increase skills among healthcare providers to perform advance care planning. Training decreases barriers and improves attitudes and confidence to perform advance care planning. Advance care planning can include the Physician Order for Life-sustaining Treatment, an out-of-hospital order that directs emergency medical services of a patient’s wishes. Internal evidence found that many providers are unfamiliar with the Physician Order for Life-Sustaining Treatment form. The Theory of Planned Behavior was used to guide the project. Objectives: To improve advanced care planning processes in a healthcare organization. Design: A quality improvement project was performed at a medical center with outpatient provider groups. Virtual training was provided by the Arizona Hospital and Healthcare Association on the Physician Order for Life-Sustaining Treatment. Participants completed a three-part survey to measure skills for advance care planning after a training event. Setting/Subjects: Five (n=5) American palliative and primary care providers at a medical center. Measurements: The East Midlands Evaluation Toolkit is a validated survey tool that measures confidence and competence in advance care planning after training. Results: Descriptive statistics, Friedman’s test, and the Kruskal-Wallis test were used for data analysis. Results provided evidence to the healthcare facility that there is a significant need to train their healthcare professionals on advance care planning. Conclusions: Recommendations are made to focus research on larger studies looking at the types of advance care planning, and differences in disciplines and specialties.
