Abstract: This presentation highlights the findings of a grounded theory study examining Long Term Care nurses' experiences with Advanced Care Planning (ACP). The model that emerged from the study demonstrated that nurses' primary goal in ACP is facilitating conversations aimed at ensuring resident comfort. Achieving this goal involves navigating a complex interplay of individual, interpersonal, organizational, and systemic factors. It was the first Canadian study to illustrate the micro- and macro-perspectives of ACP through the dual lens of Symbolic interactionism and the socio-ecological model. A multitude of implications for the healthcare system and future research arose from this study, specifically with regard to practice, education, research, and policy development.
