Advance Directives

A smiling doctor sits at her desk as she works on paperwork

Advance Care Planning is vital during the moments when you’re unable to properly communicate or make decisions as it relates to your medical treatment due to injury or illness.

Our goal is to empower you to make decisions while providing you with the tools and resources to:

  • Reflect on what you want.
  • Talk with your family, primary care physicians, specialists and friends.
  • Designate a Patient Advocate who can best carry out your wishes.
  • Write your wishes and Patient Advocate down in an Advance Directives (Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care).
