-
-
- DIRECTIVE TO PHYSICIANS
-
-
-
-
- Directive made this _________________ day of ___________.
-
-
-
-
- I @001, being of sound mind and twenty-one years of age
- or older, willfully and voluntarily make known my desire that my
- life shall not be artificially prolonged under the circumstances
- set forth below, and do hereby declare:
-
-
-
-
- 1. If at any time I should have an incurable irreversible
- condition caused by injury, disease, or illness certified to be a
- terminal condition by two physicians, I direct that life-
- sustaining procedures be withheld or withdrawn and that I be
- permitted to die naturally, if the application of life-sustaining
- procedures would serve only to artificially prolong the moment
- of my death and where my physician determines that my death
- is imminent whether or not life-sustaining procedures are
- utilized;
-
-
- 2. In the absence of my ability to give directions regarding
- the use of such life-sustaining procedures, it is my intention
- that this directive shall be honored by my family and physician(s)
- as the final expression of my legal right to refuse medical or
- surgical treatment and accept the consequences of such refusal;
-
-
- 3. If I have been diagnosed as pregnant and that diagnosis is
- known to my physician, this directive shall have no force or effect
- during the course of my pregnancy;
-
-
- 4. I have been diagnosed and notified as having a terminal
- condition by @002, M.D. or D.O. whose address is @003. I
- understand that if I have not filed in the name and address of
- the physician, it shall be presumed that I did not have a
- terminal condition when I made out this directive;
-
-
- 5. This directive shall be in effect until revoked;
-
- 6. I understand the full import of this directive and I am
- emotionally and mentally competent to make this directive; and
-
- 7. I understand that I may revoke this directive at any time.
