Advance Care Planning
Advance Care Planning is a process that helps you reflect on your healthcare wishes, select a trusted person to make choices for you if needed and make a written plan for the future.
What is an Advance Directive?
An Advance Directive is a legal document where you identify your healthcare wishes, request any special ceremonies or traditions and name your power of attorney to make decisions for you in the event you cannot make them for yourself.
We recommend everyone over the age of 18 has an Advance Directive. Family members do not have automatic legal authority to make healthcare decisions on your behalf if you are not able to.
