National Healthcare Decisions Day


National Healthcare
Decisions Day Set for April 16, 2011…. Join Americans across the country in making their future healthcare decisions known to family, friends, and healthcare providers.  Share your wishes and complete your advance directive, because…YOUR DECISIONS MATTER.  Learn more about National Healthcare Decisions Day and get free information at www.nationalhealthcaredecisionsday.org.


April 16 is National Healthcare Decisions Day, and we hope that you will take this time to discuss and document your healthcare wishes.  We all need to be prepared in the event of a health crisis, and having the talk is easier than most people think, but many of us need a little inspiration or a reminder to do it.  I hope that this message and National Healthcare Decisions Day are all you need for inspiration.  Please mark your calendar for April 16 to have the talk with your loved ones. 

There are all sorts of free resources--including free advance directive forms for each of the 50 states--on the NHDD website: www.nhdd.org.  Additionally, please help A Better Way Home, A Boise hospice & palliative care organization spread the word with Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn.  Advance care planning is something we ALL should do and encourage others to do, regardless of age or current health.  Discussing your wishes can be one of the most important gifts you ever give your loved ones.
