which I currently reside or have applied for admission – unless related to me by
blood, marriage or adoption. The person I have chosen to act as my agent and to
whom I give full authority to make all medical and health care decisions for me at
any time during which I am unable to make them for myself, is:
21.
Name of Agent: __________________________________________________
Address: ________________________________________________________
Telephone: Home:_____________________ Work:______________________
Cell Phone or Pager: ___________________ E-mail: ____________________
22. If for any reason I revoke the authority of my agent, or this individual is unavailable,
unwilling, or otherwise ineligible to make decisions for me, the following individuals (to
act alone and successively, in order of priority as listed) are authorized to serve as
alternate proxies:
23.
Name of Alternate #1:_____________________________________________
Address: ________________________________________________________
Telephone: Home:_____________________ Work:______________________
Cell Phone or Pager: ___________________ E-mail: ____________________
24.
Name of Alternate #2: ____________________________________________

Telephone: Home:_____________________ Work:______________________
Cell Phone or Pager: ___________________ E-mail: ____________________
25. Each alternate successor designated shall be vested with the same power and duties as if
originally named as my health care agent. These persons, in priority of the order
presented, are to have binding authority over any and all other persons to make my
personal and health care decisions. In making decisions in my behalf if my wishes are not
clear, I direct my agent to act in his/her best understanding of what my wishes would
have been. And, where not reasonably sure of what I would have wanted, to act
according to his/her belief in my interests as determined from his/her knowledge of my
personal and family affairs, and other goals and values in life. The authority of my agent
shall not be terminated unless it appears that he or she is clearly and obviously not acting
in accordance with my known wishes, or is overwhelmingly ignoring my best interests if
my wishes are not otherwise known.
