What are the types of Advance Healthcare Directives?
There are a few categories of Advance Directives including Durable Power of Attorney, a “living will,” and a Natural Death Act Declaration —which are all outlined below. The newest form of a directive is an Advance Healthcare Directive Form, which can be obtained from the hospital or by visiting our Resources and Links section. The first kind of advance directive under California law lets you name someone to make health care decisions when you can’t. This form is called a DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR HEALTHCARE.
