Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Lower rates of goals of care (GOC) conversations have been observed in non-white hospitalised patients, which may contribute to racial disparities in end-of-life care. We aimed to assess how a targeted initiative to increase GOC documentation rates is associated with GOC documentation by race.
