An advance directive records your medical treatment preferences and appoints a health care proxy to speak for you if you cannot. It helps ensure your care aligns with your values. It also provides guidance to doctors and reduces confusion for family members during difficult moments. If you have clear preferences and a trusted proxy, this document can be a critical part of your plan.
Choose someone you trust to make health care decisions in line with your values and who understands your wishes. Consider their ability to handle stressful situations and their willingness to advocate for you. It is wise to discuss your choices with the person beforehand and to name alternates in case your first choice is unavailable.
