Create, Register and Make Changes to an Advance Directive
An advance directive is what many people think of as a living will or a durable power of attorney for health care. It is a written document that outlines your wishes for medical treatment in the future, including if you are no longer able to make those decisions.
This section will help you to
create and register
or
make changes
to your advance directive. Health care professionals can also learn more about getting authorized or
logging into the registry
and Do Not Resuscitate orders.
If you already have a directive and would like to access your account with the Vermont Advance Directive Registry to view your document,

Health care professionals can also learn more about
applying for authorized access
and
Do Not Resuscitate orders
. If you are a health care professional who already has authorized access,
log in to your provider account
.
