What Is Nurse Life Care Planning?

• The Nurse Life Care Planner uses knowledge, judgement and skills based on the principles of biological physiological, behavioral, social and the holistic perspective of nursing science in applying the critical thinking model known as the nursing process in the development of the Life Care Plan.
• Nurses must be ethical, responsible, and accountable in the Life Care Planning process.
• Acquiring knowledge, wisdom and learning is a lifelong process and Nurse Life Care Planners must assume responsibility for their ongoing education. The AANLCP^® is committed to enabling the Nurse Life Care Planner in meeting that responsibility.
• Standards of nursing practice, interdisciplinary collaboration, and appropriate resource utilization enhance the Nurse Life Care Planning process.
