SPIRIT

"SPIRIT is a two-session, structured psychoeducational intervention assisting patients clarify their end-of-life preferences and helping surrogates understand the patient's wishes and prepare for the surrogate role.~During the first session (about 45 minutes) individualized information is provided about the effectiveness of life-sustaining treatment for people with end-organ failure, and the care provider will assist the patient to examine his/her values about life-sustaining treatment. The surrogate will receive help preparing for end-of-life decision-making and the emotional burden of decision-making. A Goals-of-Care document will be completed to indicate the patient's preferences.~Two weeks later, the second session (about 15 minutes) addresses remaining or new concerns. The patient's Goals-of-Care document will be reviewed. The patient's end-of-life preferences and surrogate's name and relationship to the patient will be documented in the medical record."

BEHAVIORAL

Comparison Condition

As required by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), written information on advance directives (ADs) is provided to a patient on the first day of dialysis, and a social worker reviews this information with patients and encourages them to complete an AD. This typically takes about 10 minutes.
