Learn more about Living Will
A Living Will, also known as an Advance Directive for Healthcare, or Healthcare Directive in some states, is a document that defines acceptable measures for saving or prolonging a patient's life by medical staff or first-responders. It also includes statements about pain-management and comfort measures that are desirable or allowable.
Usually, an Advance Directive consists of several sections: an Introduction with the description of what this record is, a Living Will (the main part), naming Health Proxies, Confirmation, Signature, Witnesses, Record of copies. In the main section, you need to decide whether you want life-sustaining procedures in a vegetative state, life-prolonging care conditions, medical research, or donation of your organs. If you have special requests for certain situations, you can include them in this document.
Before starting, the person writing the Living Will must make some decisions about their preferred end-of-life measures for cases of terminal illness or injury, permanent unconsciousness, or need for life support. After that, they need to use templates to make the process of creating a Living Will or Health Care Directive easier, find witnesses to confirm that they’re of sound mind, and make a list of people who should get copies of the executed file. Prepare your own legally-binding Health Care Directive in a matter of minutes by adding your data after completing a simple questionnaire with US Legal Forms.
