Abstract

In 1996, 53% of US nursing home residents had advance directives. This report defines documentation of advance directives in a nationally representative survey of US nursing home residents aged !65 years in 2004, as well as advance directive use in relation to demographic factors and receipt of specialty services including hospice/palliative care. In 2004, advance directives were documented in 69.9% of US nursing home residents aged !65 years and in 93.6% of residents receiving hospice/palliative care. Documentation of advance directives increased substantially between 1996 and 2004 and is nearly universal among residents receiving hospice/palliative care services. However in 2004, 3 of every 10 US nursing home residents did not have documentation of advance care plans. Continued efforts are needed to promote the importance of advance care planning among US nursing home residents.
