April 16 is Healthcare Decisions Day
April 12, 2011
The National Healthcare Decisions Day Initiative is a collaborative effort of national, state and community organizations committed to ensuring that all adults with decision making capacity have the information and opportunity to communicate and document their healthcare decisions. The objectives are to provide much needed information to the public, reduce the number of tragedies that occur when a person�s wishes are unknown, and improve the ability of healthcare facilities and providers to offer informed and thoughtful guidance about advance healthcare planning.
