Every health care provider should read this!
Improving 'Death Literacy' is crucial for effective hospice care advocacy, and dispel any misconceptions that some may have about this line of care. Death Literacy refers to the knowledge and understanding of death, dying, and end-of-life care options. Clinicians play a vital role in improving death literacy by initiating conversations about end-of-life care options and providing resources and support. With that said, clinicians are not having enough of these conversations, which has led to the underutilization of this service line overall. When marketing your hospice care operation, we encourage that you do so via educational resources. The more knowledgeable your referral sources are about the benefits this line of care can provide to a patient, the more likely they are to send more patients to you. https://lnkd.in/eP8DXg3T #hospicecare #hospiceawarenessmonth #hospice #deathliteracy #hospiceworks #homehealth #homehealthcareservices #courageousconversations #National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization #homeandcommunitybasedservices #homecare #homecareservices

Communications & Marketing Leader | Amplifying Impactful Narratives | Driving Outcomes | Fueling Demand Generation [20.7K micro-influencers]
I appreciate today's article by Dana Territo in The New Orleans Advocate about our efforts at the Louisiana State Capital. The State Advocacy Day, organized by the Alzheimer's Association Louisiana Chapter and Alzheimer's Impact Movement (AIM), brings advocates from Louisiana together to meet with policymakers. Their goal is to share personal stories and push for policies that enhance the lives of those affected by Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. This annual event, which occurred on April 25 this year, saw Governor Jeff Landry declaring it Alzheimer’s and Related Dementias Awareness Day. Advocates like me, who have lost family members to the disease, emphasized the urgent need for support and research. They rallied on the Capitol steps, urging legislators to support Senate Bill 46, which aims to establish an advisory council to prioritize Alzheimer’s and related dementias as public health concerns in Louisiana. Senate Bill 46, if passed, will create the Alzheimer’s and Related Dementias Advisory Council, fostering collaboration between private sectors and state agencies. This initiative aims to raise awareness, improve healthcare, and support caregivers amidst the growing impact of Alzheimer’s on Louisiana's health systems and budgets. With projections indicating a significant increase in affected adults by 2025, addressing Alzheimer’s is crucial. The Alzheimer's Association® and AIM are committed to ongoing advocacy efforts, working with policymakers to tackle the dementia crisis and ensure coordinated responses at the state level.
