Hospice, Care Home and Community Advance Care Planning
About MyWishes Care
MyWishes Care is for heath and care professionals who provide Advance Care Planning for patients and their community.
Advance Care Planning is MyWishes Care’s core and only focus.
How we are different
Other care platforms shoe-horn Advance Care Planning into their services as an afterthought. MyWishes Care takes a different approach. Our service is built for Advance Care Planning and the needs of those being cared for and the professionals who document and implement the person’s wishes.
Our low cost, high-value intervention is improving advance care planning and the positive outcomes it has for the person, their loved ones and the wider health and care ecosystem.

Features overview
People-centred technology
Advance Care Planning teams have access to their organisation’s Advance Care Planning case loads.
The questions asked and the way in which patients and their loved one’s are able to be involved, makes our service unique and of extremely high value.
Easy to use and understand interface
Our interface is purposefully simple, jargon free and easy to use.
It has been developed with the understanding that the professional supporting the patient with their Advance Care Plan might not be confident with using technology or have English as their first language.
We have used the the NHS and Gov.UK’s design system for increased familiarity and ease of use.
Realtime progress and analytics
Realtime data is available and displayed for internet and external review.
Certain datasets are broken down into day, week and month views. This allows for ongoing motivation and improvement.
We call this “actionable data”. In short, the data displayed leads to improved awarenss, better team cohesion and action.
Datasets provided can also be used for external validation and sharing with third party regulators and those assessing the postive impact and outcomes of your organisation’s services.
Team Management
Every organisation using MyWishes Care needs at least one, assigned ‘Manager’. Once assigned the Manager can assign other Managers, The assigned managers are in charge of their MyWishes Care environment.
Managers are decide which colleagues have access to the organisations Advance Care Planning environment and the level of access each colleague should have. Some colleagues might for example, be assigned ‘read only’ access. This will allow them to view Advance Care Plans but not edit them. Others might be assigned ‘Read/Write’ access. This will allow them to view and edit Advance Care Plans
When someone joins an organisation’s team or leaves, the manager is easily able to revoke their access. Revoking access does not alter or delete any of the care plans or information that they had previously provided.
Cost savings within your organisation
Advance Care Planning has a positive impact on the person being cared for, those they care about and within care organisations from a psychosocial and finanical persective.
Advance Care Planning often leads to reduce costs when wishes are adhered to. Factors that are reduced include emergency hospital admissions and people dying in their preferred place of death.
