Advance Care Directives

An Advance Care Directive is an important way of letting people know your preferences about your healthcare and treatment in case you are seriously ill or injured and not able to make decisions. Having an Advance Care Directive will make it easier for those significant to you and health staff if they need to make decisions for you. Making an Advance Care Directive is an important part of Advance Care Planning.

• How do I prepare for making an Advance Care Directive?
• How do I make a valid Advance Care Directive?
• Who will make healthcare decisions for you when you no longer can?
• When will my Advance Care Directive be used?
• Where should I keep my Advance Care Directive?
