1. Proposal Summary/Abstract
Healthcare workers align on a core principle of wanting to be of service to patients and families. As training advances and we become more specialized, our perception of how we may be of service reciprocally narrows. This unintentionally leads to siloed practice patterns. Advance care planning (ACP) offers a universally unifying opportunity for interprofessional collaboration.
