New Jersey End-of-Life Planning Survey

This week, the Monmouth University Polling Institute and the New Jersey Health Care Quality Institute released their third “Health Matters Poll,” a periodic survey of Garden State attitudes on health care related issues. 



The current survey, which examines planning for end of life care, found that most New Jerseyans have had some sort of discussion about their wishes for end of life medical treatment, but few have actually made specific plans.  In short, New Jersey looks much like the rest of the country (as demonstrated, for example, in November's Pew Research survey).
