I'm Anne Desormier-Cartwright, of Elder and Estate Planning Attorneys, and I'm here to talk to you about the document you want access to during an emergency and how to gain that access.
The first document is the Durable Power of Attorney. That's where you name an agent to act for you. In Florida, a Durable Power of Attorney is immediately effective upon signing. That means it can be a dangerous document, so you must name an agent to act for you that you trust.
The second document is your Healthcare Power of Attorney. This document allows somebody to make health or medical decisions for you when you are not able to. This is a very important document as we come into hurricane season, because if you're unable to make your decisions because you get hurt this is the document the medical provider will rely on to get you the medical help you need.
The third document is a Living Will, or an Advance Care Directive. That's where you tell the world, "Keep me alive artificially, or don't." "Pull that plug, I don't want to be kept alive."
I get it, these documents can be overwhelming, the concepts confusing. We are here to help. Give us a call, the number is below.
