The field of life care planning is relatively young in comparison with others. The life care plan (LCP) can be completed by professionals from various disciplines, posing a challenge for interpretation and understanding when clinicians come from diverse backgrounds and educational levels. All life care planners must adhere to both the standards of practice for their discipline, but also for life care planning. Both the life care planning process and the life care plan (LCP) itself provide an exemplar of transdisciplinary team work. The purpose of this article is to revisit the term transdisciplinary and the implications of this concept for the field of life care planning.
