Popis:	Background: In Hong Kong, dying in nursing homes will trigger a Coroner’s referral, and over 11,000 nursing home residents were sent to acute hospitals to die every year. End-of-life (EOL) care in Hong Kong developed rapidly in recent years. An EOL Program for nursing home residents was established, aiming to promote advance care plan (ACP) discussions and facilitate care in place.
