Almost......

This is from Healthcare Decisions Day in Alaska, April 2008:

WHEREAS, Healthcare Decisions Day is designed to raise public awareness of
the need to plan ahead for healthcare decisions, related to end of life care and
medical decision-making whenever patients are unable to speak for themselves and
to encourage the specific use of advance directives to communicate these
important healthcare decisions. [...]
WHEREAS, one of the principal goals of
Healthcare Decisions Day is to encourage hospitals, nursing
homes, assisted living facilities, continuing care retirement
communities
, and hospices to participate in a statewide effort to provide
clear and consistent information to the public about advance directives, as well
as to encourage medical professionals and lawyers to volunteer their time and
efforts to improve public knowledge and increase the number of Alaska’s citizens
with advance directives.
WHEREAS, the Foundation for End of Life Care in
Juneau, Alaska, and other organizations throughout the United States have
endorsed this event and are committed to educating the public about the
importance of discussing healthcare choices and executing advance
directives.
