Advance Directives
Having a medical advanced directive on file is the best way to make sure your health care wishes are followed. It allows you to provide instructions on who can make medical decisions for you in the event you are unable to make them yourself. An advanced directive also allows you to determine the type and amount of care you wish to receive. Download the
Idaho Health Care Directive Registry form
or the
Living Will and Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care form
to make sure your document is recorded.
Fivewishes.org
is a good resource to use as you consider documenting your wishes and health care preferences.
If you or someone you help care for has been diagnosed with advanced illness or frailty, you should consider completing a POST (Physician Orders for Scope of Treatment) form in addition to an advance directive. Your doctor can help guide you through the process of completing an Idaho POST (an Idaho POST must be signed by a physician to be valid).
