WHAT ARE "ADVANCE DIRECTIVES"?

Advance directives are documents, such as a living will or health care power of attorney, that state your choices about medical treatment or name someone to make decisions about your medical treatment if you are unable to make these decisions yourself. They are called "advance" directives because they are signed in advance to let your doctor and other health care providers know your wishes concerning medical care.

AVAILABLE FOR ALL 50 STATES IN MULTIPLE LANGUAGES

Because the advance directive laws are different for each state, PMR has created an individual book for each state and the District of Columbia. PMR tracks all state and federal laws that relate to advance directives and updates each book when the law changes.

Furthermore, many states have been published in other languages such as Spanish, Haitian Creole and Vietnamese.
