Do You Need an Advanced Health Care Directive?
An Advanced Health Care Directive (AHCD) safeguards your peace of mind, ensuring your health care decisions are respected even when you can’t voice them yourself. An AHCD protects your wishes and reduces your family’s burden in a difficult time.

Incapacity
If you are unconscious or impaired, your AHCD allows your designated agent to make decisions on your behalf.
Life-Sustainment
Health care directives outline which medical interventions you do or do not want, such as ventilation, feeding tubes, or CPR.
Comfort Care
With your AHCD, you indicate whether you want aggressive pain relief, along with your preferences for curative vs. palliative care.
End-of-Life
Work with a skilled health care directives lawyer to be sure your wishes regarding treatment withdrawal and resuscitation are clearly defined.
Donations
Organ and tissue donation for transplantation or research can be addressed in your AHCD.
Final Arrangements
If not included in your will, your final arrangements, including autopsy and burial or cremation preferences, should be noted in your health care directive.
