Advance medical care planning should always be considered regardless of the age group. Everyone over the age of 18 should have a plan, but having a disability or a chronic or degenerative illness makes it even more crucial. With a strategy, your family won’t have to second-guess their decisions. It prevents family members from being perplexed, quarreling, or disagreeing over what to do in the event that you are unable to communicate their wishes. Advance directives can ensure that your requests are followed by informing your family and the medical staff of your preferences and wishes. Writing a plan and discussing it with your family, friends, and medical professionals can help alleviate or stop needless suffering, enhance your quality of life, and assist you in times of need.
