Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Once patients have signed an informed consent they will be asked to complete the ACP evaluation questionnaire. Their level of frailty will be assessed with the 5-meter walk test. Two weeks after discharge (+ or - 7 days) they will be contacted by phone in order to complete 3 sections of the CANHELP questionnaire.
Study Tools
Patient questionnaires:
1. ACP Evaluation questionnaire: 5 questions about advance care planning on admission to hospital from CANHELP study (time predicted 10 minutes)
2. CANHELP questionnaire (sections relationship with doctors, communication and decision making) 2 weeks after discharge (time predicted 25 minutes)
Patient test:
1. 5-minute gait speed
