Advance Medical Directive
November 1, 2007 | Leave a Comment
An Advance Medical Directive is a document that combines a living will (a statement of your desires in end-of-life situations) and a medical power of attorney (your appointment of an agent). By stating under what circumstances you want life support withdrawn by your loved ones and the related anguish of making such a decision. By appointing an agent, you ensure that those decisions will be honored. Your agent can also make related medical decisions that need to be made when you can no longer make those decisions.
