25 FOR HEALTH CARE
AB695,20,8
1I,.... (print name, address and date of birth), being of sound mind, intend by this
2document to create a power of attorney for health care. My executing this power of
3attorney for health care is voluntary. Despite the creation of this power of attorney
4for health care, I expect to be fully informed about and allowed to participate in any
5health care decision for me, to the extent that I am able. For the purposes of this
6document, "health care decision" means an informed decision to accept, maintain,
7discontinue or refuse any care, treatment, service or procedure to maintain, diagnose
8or treat my physical or mental condition.
AB695,20,109 In addition, I may, by this document, specify my wishes with respect to making
10an anatomical gift upon my death.
AB695,20,1111 DESIGNATION OF HEALTH CARE AGENT
AB695,21,212 If I am no longer able to make health care decisions for myself, due to my
13incapacity, I hereby designate.... (print name, address and telephone number) to be
14my health care agent for the purpose of making health care decisions on my behalf.
15If he or she is ever unable or unwilling to do so, I hereby designate.... (print name,
16address and telephone number) to be my alternate health care agent for the purpose
17of making health care decisions on my behalf. Neither my health care agent nor my
18alternate health care agent whom I have designated is my health care provider, an
19employee of my health care provider, an employee of a health care facility in which
20I am a patient or a spouse of any of those persons, unless he or she is also my relative.
21For purposes of this document, "incapacity" exists if 2 physicians or a physician and
22a psychologist who have personally examined me sign a statement that specifically
23expresses their opinion that I have a condition that means that I am unable to receive
24and evaluate information effectively or to communicate decisions to such an extent

1that I lack the capacity to manage my health care decisions. A copy of that statement
2must be attached to this document.
AB695,21,33 GENERAL STATEMENT OF AUTHORITY GRANTED
AB695,21,104 Unless I have specified otherwise in this document, if I ever have incapacity I
5instruct my health care provider to obtain the health care decision of my health care
6agent, if I need treatment, for all of my health care and treatment. I have discussed
7my desires thoroughly with my health care agent and believe that he or she
8understands my philosophy regarding the health care decisions I would make if I
9were able. I desire that my wishes be carried out through the authority given to my
10health care agent under this document.
AB695,21,1911 If I am unable, due to my incapacity, to make a health care decision, my health
12care agent is instructed to make the health care decision for me, but my health care
13agent should try to discuss with me any specific proposed health care if I am able to
14communicate in any manner, including by blinking my eyes. If this communication
15cannot be made, my health care agent shall base his or her decision on any health
16care choices that I have expressed prior to the time of the decision. If I have not
17expressed a health care choice about the health care in question and communication
18cannot be made, my health care agent shall base his or her health care decision on
19what he or she believes to be in my best interest.
