A Medical Power of Attorney is a document that grants another person the legal authority to make medical decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so.
This Power of Attorney ONLY becomes effective when you become disabled or incapacitated.
It’s important to choose your medical power of attorney carefully and it may also be a good idea to discuss your beliefs and wishes with this person so you can be sure they can keep your best interests in mind.
