A living will is a legal document that details the type and level of care a person wants to receive if they cannot make decisions or communicate their wishes when help is needed.
The Life Will addresses many life-threatening treatments and procedures such as resuscitation, ventilation, and dialysis.
A person can appoint a trusted health care provider to make care decisions if they are unable to do so.
A living trust is a legal document that addresses how the assets of an incapacitated person should be managed.
People can enlist the services of an estate planner or a lawyer to help draft or verify a living will.
