Touchstone Life Care’s way | The traditional way |
---|---|
Designed as a guided conversation so it’s easy to answer the questions. | Conversations with family tend to be put on the back burner. |
Final version presents the most vital information (like whether you want to be resuscitated) on page 1 so your doctors can quickly see what you want. | Form may not be able to be easily found when needed. |
Digital plan that can be accessed & updated from anywhere, anytime by:
| Paper copy that’s easily misplaced in an emergency or may never be found. |
Most up-to-date version is available at all times. | Outdated copy may be left in your file and used to guide your care. |
Instantly and easily shared with many of your trusted contacts. | Your family, GP, lawyer or carers may not know you have written a plan or be able to find it. |
Legally accepted as a Common Law Advance Care Directive wherever you are in Australia. | Paper copies may be difficult to locate in an emergency. |
One source of truth – other important forms can be uploaded to Touchstone Life Care including a VAD (in WA) or an Advance Care Plan done with your GP. | Important documents kept in different places. Unclear which one matters most. |
Kept securely online and complies with all privacy requirements. | Security is easily compromised. |
