Every year on April 16, National Healthcare Decisions Day is observed. It is crucial to acknowledge that there may be instances when individuals are unable to make healthcare decisions for themselves. This day is dedicated to proactively addressing such potential situations. It serves as an opportunity for patients or healthcare recipients to communicate their preferences regarding the care they desire, ensuring that their wishes are not only respected but also fulfilled by healthcare professionals.
