An advance medical directive is a legal document that allows you to communicate your healthcare treatment preferences when you are unable to speak for yourself. In the District of Columbia, this directive typically combines a living will—which outlines your wishes regarding life-sustaining treatment, pain management, and end-of-life care—with a medical power of attorney, which appoints a trusted person to make healthcare decisions on your behalf. These documents are essential components of a comprehensive estate plan and help ensure your medical wishes are respected.
For residents of Capitol Hill and throughout Washington, D.C., having an advance medical directive in place provides clarity for family members, reduces potential disputes, and protects your autonomy.
