What Is An Advanced Health Care Directive?
It is a document that allows you to appoint someone to make health care decisions for you in the event that you are unable to make your own health care decisions. Thus, the person appointed by you will make your health care decisions, with assistance from your physician during your period of incapacity. In this document, you can also state whether or not you want life support systems in the event that you are in an irreversible comatose or similar state; you can state whether or not you want to donate your organs, and you can also state your preferences as to the disposition of your remains.
