This guide is very well written and will help individuals discuss their end-of-life medical care wishes with their advocate, family and healthcare provider. It focuses on the conversations, not simply completing an Advance Directive document. Studies show that without talking about your values and wishes, a document alone is not effective in assuring that those wishes will be followed. It is essential to choose a healthcare advocate wisely and talk with them every time your health status changes, or at the very least every few years. This guide will help you do that.
