Awareness-raising activities of advance care planning for community residents: a nationwide cross-sectional survey in Japan
Five-hundred eighty municipalities engaged in awareness-raising activities-a number that had increased significantly since the 2017 survey. Municipalities that could not engage in awareness-raising activities should receive financial support and other forms of support from prefectures. Furthermore, to ensure that municipalities clarify the purpose of awareness-raising and the desired outcomes, indices for quantitatively measuring results and achievements should be developed.
