Insure That Your Intentions Are Carried Out Through A Living Will
Please consider maintaining a living will.
You have the right to decide the type of health care you receive. Should you become
unable to understand, make, or communicate decisions about medical care, your wishes for medical
treatment are most likely to be followed if you express those wishes in advance.
The
Pennsylvania Department of Health provides a sample Living Will
document, which is legal in Pennsylvania to insure that your wishes are followed.
You may
complete this form as your Living Will, or you may use it to assist you in developing a Living
Will that best communicates your own wishes.
