Living Will

What is a Living Will?

As we navigate the complexities of modern healthcare, it's essential to have a clear understanding of what a living will is and why it's crucial for end-of-life care planning. An advance directive aka Living Will is a legal document that outlines your wishes for medical treatment in the event you become unable to make decisions for yourself. It's a powerful tool that ensures your healthcare providers respect your autonomy and make decisions that align with your values and beliefs.
