Advance Decision / Living Will Explanation: An Advance Decision (also known as a Living Will, Health Care Directive or Personal Directive) is quite different from an advance statement (see https://www.ageuk.org.uk/globalassets/age-uk/documents/facts... "An advance decision to refuse treatment lets you, while you have mental capacity, choose and explain which medical treatments you do not want doctors to give you, if a time comes when you lack capacity and cannot make the decision or communicate your wishes. If you want to refuse life-sustaining treatment, you must put this in writing, sign and date it in presence of a witness." It is more than an advance statement which "allows you to make general statements, describing your wishes and preferences about future care should you be unable to make or communicate a decision or express your preferences at the time." The term 'Declaración Previa de Voluntad de Deseos Anticipados' is the equivalent of an advance decision (living will) - see https://www.minsalud.gov.co/sites/rid/Lists/BibliotecaDigita... https://www.minsalud.gov.co/sites/rid/Lists/BibliotecaDigital/RIDE/VS/PP/abece-voluntad-anticipada.pdf https://www.ageuk.org.uk/globalassets/age-uk/documents/factsheets/fs72_advance_decisions_advance_statements_and_living_wills_fcs.pdf |
