Why a Healthcare Directive Is Essential

A healthcare directive, often referred to as an advance directive, is one of the most important components of a complete estate plan. It allows you to clearly communicate your medical preferences in the event that you become unable to express them yourself due to injury, illness, or a medical emergency. Without this document, decisions about life support, resuscitation, long-term care, and other critical treatments may fall to the courts or to family members who are unsure of your wishes. This can create emotional strain, disagreements, or confusion at a time when your loved ones are already under stress.


By documenting your choices in advance, you maintain control over your medical care and ensure your values guide the decisions made on your behalf. A healthcare directive gives your family and healthcare providers clarity and direction, helping them act with confidence and peace of mind when it matters most. No matter your age or current health, having a healthcare directive in place is a meaningful step toward protecting yourself and easing the burden on those who care about you.
