Advanced Directives

Discuss the advantages of completing vs. the consequences of neglecting to complete a series of advanced directives with your loved one.

Advanced directives instruct your doctor or any medical care professional regarding the kind of care you want. This includes a living will, DNR orders, and health care proxy

Completing advanced directives can be completed in a variety of ways;

  • Utilize reliable online assistance and forms through LegalZoom.

  • Consult your doctor(s) regarding advanced directive forms that you can use.

  • Contact an elder law attorney to assist you with completing all of your advanced directives.

  • Utilize computer software packages that will assist you in filling out appropriate documents.

  • Contact your local Area Agency on Aging or health department for forms.

  • Write your wishes and have them witnessed by family and friends.

Please note that whatever option you use, advanced directives should be registered with a proper authority. Please check your local laws for advanced directives: US Living Wills Registry
