Health Care Directive
(Separate Website)
A Health Care Directive is a document that lets you name a Health Care Agent. A Health Care Agent is someone who can make decisions about your health care when you are not able to do make decisions yourself. The Health Care Directive also lets you leave instructions about your health care. You may give instructions about your care without naming an agent. Or you may name an agent AND give instructions.
