Governor Tony Evers recently unveiled a proclamation declaring November 2023 as Hospice and Palliative Care Month in Wisconsin. The proclamation, which was requested by WiHPCA, outlines the value of hospice and palliative care in Wisconsin for patients in need of life-ending and life-limiting care. It also applauds the tremendous contributions of hospice and palliative care professionals across the state and the importance of the quality care and services they provide to patients and their families.

Next month, WiHPCA will be issuing an Advocacy Action Alert membership-wide urging members to contact their local state lawmakers to introduce them to WiHPCA, educate them on the importance of hospice and palliative care, and to help celebrate Hospice and Palliative Care Month. Please watch your inbox for the Alert and take a few minutes to help advance WiHPCA’s advocacy efforts.
