An Advance Directive is a written, legal document regarding your preferences for medical care if you are unable to make decisions for yourself. Advance directives guide choices about medical decisions for doctors, family members and caregivers, as they are the instructions you give regarding your future care.
Your care coordinator can give you more information and answer questions you may have about Advance Directives. You can also learn more at Vermont Advance Directives and New Hampshire Advance Directives.
