VERO BEACH, Fla. – (April 3, 2009) –In observation of National Healthcare Decisions Day, VNA Hospice will be offering free copies of Five Wishes, an advance directive/living will planning tool at its Hidden Treasures resale boutique on April 16, 2009.
National Healthcare Decisions Day is an initiative to encourage patients to express their wishes regarding healthcare through conversations and the completion of advance directives. VNA Hospice hopes to increase awareness of the importance of advance planning and encourage people to complete an advance directive and designate the person who will make health care decisions for them if they become unable to do so. Five Wishes will be available, while supplies last, during normal business hours.
