Living Wills R Us
Put It In Writing, says the American Hospital Association, and according to their recent update to member hospitals,The AHA's "Put It In Writing" Web site has attracted more than 11,830 individual visitors since it went online Monday, with visitors staying more than eight minutes on average. The wallet card was downloaded more than 4,150 times, and the brochure more than 3,550 times. Hospitals are encouraged to include on their Web sites a link to the site, which contains resources to help people put their wishes about end-of-life care into advance directives.The wallet cards really are a new kind of push. Also on the AHA page: links to bar association sites on myths about advance directives and about how to plan for healthcare at the end of life. [thanks John Morley (AMC)]
