What is an Advanced Directive?
Advance Directive/Living Will
An advance directive, sometimes also called a "living will", is a legal document that lets you outline your healthcare preferences in case you’re ever unable to make decisions for yourself. It ensures your medical treatment aligns with your wishes and can also name someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf. It’s a simple way to take control of your future care.
Some states require an advance directive to be notarized, while others accept it with the signatures of witnesses. Additionally, some states give you the option to choose between notarization or witnessing.
