Advance directives: A plan for end of life
Article Abstract:
A living will and a medical power of attorney are the two common types of advance directives, which offer the maximum opportunity for a person to make known their end-of-life medical wish. Advanced directives can be updated or revoked at any time and a person has the last word on his care as long as he is able to speak or communicate.
