What is a living will?
A living will is also known as an “advance health care directive.” It’s a legally binding document that communicates your wishes regarding medical care if you can’t speak for yourself. It relieves your family of the guilt and conflict that can come with having to make these types of decisions.
Who really needs a living will?
Everyone, young and old alike, should have a living will. Young, healthy adults are often strong enough to survive a harrowing incident, and therefore, they also need a living will. Age is not an excuse to avoid creating a living will.
Can I really do this myself?
Yes. For hospitals and other health care providers, having patients who clearly express their desires in a living will is extremely helpful. State laws make it relatively easy to create a living will. On May 17 at Citizens First Bank, attorneys from The Law Firm of Harned, Bachert and Denton will be available to answer any questions you may have. Once your living will is completed, copies will be provided free for you, your doctor & your family.Now, more than ever, it’s a good time to put your wishes in writing. Take a little time and prepare your living will today.
