Make Your Medical Wishes Known
A Living Will allows you to communicate your wishes regarding end-of-life medical care if you are unable to speak for yourself.
While a Health Care Proxy appoints someone to make medical decisions on your behalf, a Living Will provides written guidance regarding the types of life-sustaining treatment you wish to receive—or decline—in certain medical circumstances.
A Living Will may address:
- Artificial nutrition and hydration.
- Life-support measures.
- Resuscitation preferences.
- Pain management and comfort care.
- Other end-of-life treatment preferences.
Preparing a Living Will can provide clarity to your loved ones and health care providers during difficult situations, helping ensure your personal values and wishes are respected.
At Yaqubie Law, we work closely with our clients to prepare comprehensive advance directives that provide both legal protection and peace of mind.
