Hard Choices for Loving People
This booklet is written to provide guidance to patients and their families who must face the hard choices as they receive and participate in healthcare. The hard choices are found in four questions that require treatment decisions: 1) Should resuscitation be attempted? 2) Should artificial nutrition and hydration be utilized? 3) Should a nursing home resident or someone ill at home be hospitalized? and 4) Is it time to shift the treatment goal from cure to comfort care only?
