The living will is a document whose precise purpose is to allow individuals to record specific instructions about the type of healthcare they would like to receive in particular end-of-life situations.
An advance directive, commonly referred to as a living will, is a legal instrument that describes the kind of medical care a person wants or does not want in the event that they are unable to express their preferences verbally. Doctors and hospitals refer to the living will when a patient is asleep and has a terminal illness or a life-threatening accident to determine whether the patient wants life-sustaining treatment, such as aided breathing or tube feeding. In the absence of a living will, the spouse, family members, or other third parties are in charge of making decisions on medical treatment.
