The Rest of Your Life recommends that you review completed

documents with an attorney, especially if there are mitigating

circumstances surrounding your Advanced Directive or Durable

Power of Attorney.

Recap. What Is?

Advanced Directive

An Advanced Directive is a legal document that specifically spells out how you want to be

cared for as the end draws near.

This is a legal document and needs to be in accord with your local State laws.

This must be completed and notarized and/or signed by witnesses. Until electronic signatures

are more common, the signed form must be in a defined location which is known to the

Health care proxy, the attorney, the doctor.

Recap. What Is?

Durable Power of Attorney

An Advanced Directive is not enough. It must be known to your caregivers.

You will need someone to see that your Advanced Directive is adhered to if you are not in a

position to do so.

This person is designated by a document called a durable power of attorney for health

matters.

You must choose your proxy/surrogate wisely.

The document designating the proxy/surrogate must be notarized and signed

Until electronic signatures are more common, the signed form must be in a defined location

which is known to the Health care proxy, the attorney, the doctor.
