EVERY DAY IS HEALTH CARE DECISIONS DAY

Today is National Health Care Decisions Day

Honoring Choices Community Partners are diligently working in communities across the Commonwealth to help adults and families make every day health care decisions day. They provide hands-on help that empowers adults to exercise their right to manage their health care decisions, any and every day. They are working together to help ensure every adult’s choices for care are well defined and honored, not just at the end of life, but all through their lives.  Honoring Choices Massachusetts and our Community Partners are part of the national effort “to inspire, educate & empower the public & providers about the importance of advance care planning.”

TODAY is a good day to remind friends, family and colleagues that Honoring Choices provides FREE downloadable Massachusetts planning documents, and a 3 step easy to follow planning guide.  Send a friend or family member our website link and simply ask “What’s in Your Plan?” The Honoring Choices website provides information and tools to help them get started.

We wholeheartedly thank our Community Partners, Collaborating Members, volunteers, and experts and leaders who generously contribute information to help all Massachusetts residents, including our most vulnerable citizens,  access early and on-going health care planning and receive high quality care that honors their values and choices.
