Florida Living Will

"The Florida Bar and the Florida Medical Association have joined together to encourage Floridians to learn about the benefits of preparing a Florida Living Will and to designate Health Care Surrogates"

A Living Will is a document that gives instructions or expresses an individuals desire concerning any aspect of his or her future health care treatment. A Health Care Surrogate is a person designated to make health care decisions if the individual becomes unable to do so. A Living Will should not be confused with a persons legal will which disposes of personal property on or after his or her death, and appoints a personal representative or revokes or revises another will.
