What Are Advance Directives? | Artificial Nutrition & Hydration
Your right to make Health Care Decisions Under the Law.
There may be times when you cannot make your wishes known to your doctor or other health care providers. If you were taken to a hospital in a coma, you would want the hospital’s medical staff to know what your specific medical care wishes are.
The questions that are listed below describes what the Maryland law has to say about your rights to inform your health care providers, and significant others, about the medical care and treatment you want, if you are physically or mentally unable to make decisions yourself.
Because this is an important matter, we urge you to talk to your spouse, family, close friends, personal advisor(s), doctor, and attorney before deciding whether you want an Advance Directive.
We hope this information is helpful to you and realize that we may not have been able to answer all of your questions. Please do not hesitate to ask. It is an important issue, and it is your right.
