Love is Not Enough
Advance Care Planning Australia has launched a new video to support this year’s National Advance Care Planning Week, which begins soon on 23 March.
Love is Not Enough encourages fit and healthy Australians to more seriously consider why advance care planning is important in their lives.
In the video they put couples to the test by asking them how well they know their loved one. While they were mostly able to correctly answer questions about preferred foods and holiday destinations, when it came to questions about end-of-life choices, things got tougher.
You can find out more about the campaign and view the video here.
