Abstract

This paper discusses planned instructional and proxy interventions for incapacity, legal guardianship, and supplements to care for people with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Service providers are encouraged to identify and initiate care decisions that are consistent with the client's care preferences. Case examples are discussed. Practitioners are encouraged to educate clients, particularly those in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, to create evidence for care preferences through planning. Service providers' concerns for liability are briefly discussed.
