The purpose of this study was to investigate the level of preparedness among Japanese American older adults for life’s end by examining their knowledge, preferences, and arrangements for end-of-life issues. A total of 248 community dwelling Japanese Americans aged 50 and older participated in the study. The cross-sectional survey results indicated that participants believed they were well-informed about end-of-life issues and well-prepared for their lives’ end. While most participants were in favor of making end-of-life arrangements, particularly with regard to making a  will/living trust , creating an  advance health care directive , appointing a  health care agent , and  funeral planning , relatively few favored  life-prolonging treatment  or planning for  organ donation . They placed a high value on natural death and family-centered decision-making processes. These findings highlight the importance of awareness and cultural humility for social workers when providing culturally informed services at life’s end to diverse Americans, including Japanese American older adults and their families.
