What Are Advance Directives?
Advance directives are a set of legal documents that communicate your healthcare wishes if you’re ever unable to make decisions yourself. These documents can include:

This document outlines the medical treatments you do or do not want in the event you become terminally ill or permanently unconscious. - Medical Power of Attorney
Appoints a trusted individual to make healthcare decisions on your behalf when you are unable to communicate. - Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) Order
A DNR order tells medical professionals not to attempt CPR or other life-saving measures if you stop breathing or your heart stops.
