Advance Care Planning - Planning ahead for serious illness or injury
How we can help you
If you are living in the local community and are over 45, we can meet with you and discuss options and plans should the time come when you are unable to speak for yourself due to illness or injury.
Our specialised Nurse can visit you at home to talk to you, your family or carer, and your Doctor about:
- who would make decisions for you regarding your health, and
- the type of medical care you would want to receive if you became seriously ill or injured.
Advance Care Planning is all about discussing your wishes before you become ill. It gives you and those close to you the opportunity to talk about your values, experiences, fears and preferences for care and treatment.
Like making a will and appointing a power of attorney or enduring power of attorney for financial matters, advance care planning may simply be a part of planning for the future.
Enduring Power of Attorney authority only applies to financial decisions. It does not extend to making healthcare decisions on behalf of someone else. The person who does this is called an Enduring Guardian.
Contact us
Hours of operation
8.30 am - 5.00 pm Monday to Friday
Closed weekends and public holidays
To use this service you must be:
- over 45 years of age
- must reside in Randwick, Botany, Waverley, Woollahra and parts of City of Sydney Local Government Area
You, your family or local Doctor can make a referral for you to see our Advance Care Planning Nurse.
To make an appointment contact the Northern Network Access and Referral Centre (NNARC) on 9369 0400 and our nurse will call you to make a convenient time to visit you in your home.
Please discuss your wishes to develop a plan with your local Doctor.
What happens if I have an appointment and will not be available for the visit?
If you are not available for an appointment please contact the NNARC referral centre.
There is a waiting time for this service. Usually between 2 - 6 weeks from date of referral.

For further information see:

Aged Care Rehabilitation Unit
How we can help you
Our team specialises in the care of older people with complex health needs. We focus on rehabilitation after illness or injury and set goals with you and support you in therapies that improve your function and independence. The aim is for you to return your previous level of ability.
We are located on Level 4 South of the Acute Services Building, Prince of Wales Hospital.
Acute Aged Care Extension Unit (AACE)
Also on Level 4 South is our AACE, a six bed unit specialising in care of older patients with behavioural symptoms related to dementia or delirium. The comfort and wellbeing of these patients is enhanced by the quiet environment provided and the staff with specialised skills.
The AACE is arranged like a home with a communal lounge and access to a safe outdoor area. It is a secure unit and you will need to press the buzzer on the wall just before the unit to alert staff that you have arrived.

Level 4 South, Acute Services Building, Prince of Wales Hospital (Building 30 on our campus map)
Our team includes doctors, nurses and allied health staff who work together with you, your family and carer to meet your physical, mental and emotional needs while you are in hospital and to begin planning for when you leave hospital.
ReVive Program Volunteers
Our volunteers receive 12 hours of training to provide support, companionship and practical assistance to patients, particularly those who are feeling confused, are at risk of falling or are losing some abilities as a result of being in hospital. The volunteers spend time with patients, listening to their stories, talking about things of interest, giving hand massages, encouraging them to eat and drink or helping them walk safely around the ward. If you think your relative might benefit from a visit from a ReViVe volunteer please contact the Aged Care Volunteer Coordinator on 9382 2014.
The aged care wards offer nursing care to patients 24 hours a day, seven days a week. A doctor is always on call. Other members of the team are available from 8am to 5pm, Monday to Friday. Our nurses will try to connect you with other members of staff at your request but, depending on the time and day and the seriousness of the situation, you may have to wait, particularly when it is after hours or on the weekend. We know this can be frustrating, especially if you are worried about your relative, and will do what we can to answer questions in the meantime.
We value your opinions and know that clear communication is essential for your care. If you do not understand anything please ask us:
- Why are you doing that?
- What does that word mean?
- What does that procedure involve?
- What alternatives are there?
- What side-effects might there be?
- How will this help?
When it comes to sharing information with family and friends, it is helpful if one person takes responsibility for asking staff for updates and passing this information on to the others.
What happens if my relative is transferred to another ward in the hospital?
Sometimes, due to bed availability or specific care needs of a patient, patients may be admitted to other wards around the hospital. These patients will still be cared for by the aged care team and will be seen on a regular basis.
We are a teaching hospital and you may be asked to be involved in research or for a student to be present at your appointment. You have a right to say no. If you do so, this will not impact in any way on the services we will provide.
