Study method: This is a mixed-methods design, including an intervention trial and qualitative process evaluation interview. Participants will receive a nurse-led, motivational interview educational intervention and research staff will track their readiness for ACP at three-time points (before the intervention \[T0\], 2-week \[T1\], 3-week \[T2\] post-intervention).
