Description

A medical care directive — also called an advance directive — is a written, legal statement that outlines your wishes for medical treatment if you become unable to make decisions for yourself due to illness, injury, or incapacity. It ensures that your healthcare providers and loved ones know how you want to be treated in specific situations, even if you cannot speak or communicate.
Creating a useful medical care directive is the best gift you can offer to your loved ones. This class walks you through a simple, clearly formatted form, along with how best to communicate with loved ones about this sensitive topic.
