ADVANCE HEALTH CARE DIRECTIVES

An advance health care directive, or durable power of attorney for health care, is a legal document which allows you to name someone else (agent) to make health care decisions for you in case you become incapacitated and are not able to make those decisions yourself.  You can specify what kinds of medical treatments you want or do not want in the future.

POWERS OF ATTORNEY

A durable power of attorney is a legal document that allows you to name someone else (agent) to act on your behalf to handle your financial affairs in case of your incapacity. A financial agent can access your bank accounts to pay your bills and pay for your care, make investment decisions, collect your debts, manage your property, and apply for public benefits on your behalf.
