A Health Care Directive (sometimes referred to as a “Living Will” or a “Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care”) is a document that helps those involved in your care know what your wishes are when you are not able to communicate those desires at a point in time when decisions regarding your care need to be made.
Is there anything a Health Care Directive can't do?
You can't request that illegal practices in Minnesota be provided to you—namely assisted suicide, euthanasia or mercy killing, or any health care treatment that is deemed to be outside of reasonable medical practices.
