Financial Power of Attorney and Advance Health Care Directive
Key components of an Advance Health Care Directive in California:
• Health Care Agent: You can designate a trusted individual to make health care decisions on your behalf if you become medically incapacitated “or” you can choose to have this document go into effect immediately if you elect to have someone else speak to your doctor’s/medical staff on your behalf.
• Specific Instructions: You can provide detailed instructions about the types of medical treatments you want or don’t want, including life-sustaining treatments, pain management, and end-of-life care.
• Organ and Tissue Donation: You can express your wishes regarding organ and tissue donation.
Key components of a Financial Power of Attorney:
• A financial power of attorney in California is a legal document that allows you to appoint someone you trust (your agent or attorney-in-fact) to manage your financial affairs if you become unable to do so yourself. This can be due to illness, injury, or other incapacitation. You can also choose to have this go into effect immediately if you choose to have someone else handle your financial affairs.
