ABCs of Living Wills

Living wills and advance directives are important documents that outline your medical treatment preferences if you cannot make decisions for yourself. They provide clear guidance to your loved ones, healthcare providers, and legal authorities, ensuring your wishes are honored and respected during a very difficult time. Whether you are facing a life-threatening illness, making end-of-life decisions, or considering your options for mental health treatment, a well-prepared living will or advance directive can provide peace of mind and ensure your needs are met.
