National Healthcare Decisions Day (NHDD), celebrated every year on April 16th and across the month of April, encourages people to begin or continue conversations about their wishes for care through the end of life. This day serves as a reminder of the importance of advance care planning (ACP). Looking for ideas to plan or promote NHDD in your community? We’ve gathered some inspiring ideas from individuals and groups across the country to help you think about what you might do for those in your personal, social, or community circles.
National Healthcare Decisions Day (NHDD) is April 16th and we’re celebrating all month by sharing resources across our communications channels – follow us via Facebook, Instagram, and sign-up our newsletter. Check here for ideas for promoting NHDD in your community or use our Communications Toolkit for Promoting NHDD to access ready-made content and images you can use to make spreading the word easy. We invite you to join us if you can!
