Impact / Expected Impact
Participants from the South Asian communities will overcome language and cultural barriers, such that they will develop a good awareness and understanding and a positive attitude towards palliative care and advance directive (AD) document. Over time, an increasing number of South Asian people will complete an AD to assert their autonomy over their end-of-life quality-care decisions.
