SURROGATE DECISION-MAKING

Neutral guidance for life's most difficult decisions.

When a loved one cannot speak for themselves, families and medical teams face some of the most difficult decisions imaginable. ReSync provides neutral facilitation to help all parties reach a thoughtful, informed consensus.

What is Surrogate Decision-Making Facilitation?

Surrogate decision-making arises when an adult is incapacitated and cannot make their own medical decisions. Family members, healthcare proxies, and medical teams must work together — often under stress and disagreement — to determine the best course of care. ReSync's neutral facilitation helps these parties communicate effectively, understand the medical situation, and reach a consensus that honors the patient's known wishes and best interests.

How It Works

Initial Consultation

ReSync meets with the requesting party to understand the situation and identify the key decision-makers.

Facilitated Meeting

A structured, neutral meeting brings together family members, healthcare proxies, and medical staff.

Information Sharing

Medical information is shared in plain language so all parties can participate meaningfully.

Consensus Building

The facilitator guides the group toward a shared understanding and, where possible, a consensus decision.
