Please circle the answer that applies to you. Multiple answers are possible

I don’t want to take part in ACP because…

• I don’t want to create my advance directive

• I already have an advance directive that I am satisfied with

• The whole process is physically/mentally too demanding for me

• The whole process is emotionally too demanding for me

• I prefer to make my advance directive later

• I cannot make the additional appointments

• Others (please name the reasons)
