The Importance of Advance Care Planning
Every April 16 is National Healthcare Decision Day, an initiative of The Conversation Project to inspire, educate and empower you regarding the importance of advance care planning. This year it will be a week long event, from April 16 to 22 with the theme “It Always Seems Too Early, Until It’s Too Late.”
Advance care planning is a topic that, unfortunately, is not often talked about. As you will see in this video, 90% of Americans know what a living will is but only 29% of them have one.
Today is the perfect time to start the discussion on advance care planning. Let this video encourage to talk to your family now and take control of what your future care will look like.
Who will speak for your if you can’t speak for yourself?
It’s time to start that conversation.
