Living Wills
Also known as an advance directive, a living will is not a traditional ‘will’, but is a document in which you can set out, in advance, what kind of medical treatment you wish, or do not wish, to receive in the event that you become incapable of communicating your own wishes.

If you want to have a say in your future medical treatment in the event that you become unable to make decisions for yourself, we would recommend that you consider making a lasting power of attorney. This is a statutory document that must be taken into consideration in the event of your loss of capacity. Please read our pages on lasting powers of attorney
