Review and Update Your Health Care Directive
• You can change or revoke your Health Care Directive as long as you are able to make
and communicate your own health care decisions. Your most recently dated advance
directive should be followed.
My most recent Health Care Directive was completed on ___________________
(month/day/year)
• It is not uncommon for individuals to change their opinions about who they want as
agents or about specific health care instructions. Review your Health Care Directive
on a regular basis, especially when there are changes in:
Your health status
Your state of residence given differences in state laws
The availability of individuals named as health care agent or alternate agents
