Advance Directives: Living Wills and Healthcare Proxies

These documents provide peace of mind that your wishes will be respected:

  • Advance Directives: Ensures your healthcare wishes are honored if you become unable to communicate them.

  • Living Will: Specifies the medical treatments you want or do not want in specific situations.

  • Healthcare Proxy: Appoints someone to make medical decisions on your behalf.

These documents provide peace of mind that your wishes will be respected.

If you don't have these directives in place, contact an attorney to draft them and ensure your healthcare plan is legally sound.
