I intend this to <br />be a limited fiduciary standard which is fully binding upon my <br />Agent. <br />HEALTH CARE POWER <br />General Authority <br />I appoint my above named Agent as my attorney -in -fact for <br />health care. I authorize my attorney -in -fact to make any and all <br />health care decisions for me when I am incapable of effectively <br />communicating with my Agent and my doctor. Without limiting the <br />foregoing, I declare that my Agent shall have the authority to <br />give or to refuse to give my consent to any and all medications, <br />surgeries, medical procedures, medical tests, examinations, <br />hospitalization, nutrition, hydration, nursing home and care home <br />residences and selection, as well as making any and all other <br />decisions concerning my care and maintenance. <br />End of Life Authority <br />I have been fully informed of all facts relating to powers <br />of attorney for health care and I understand the consequences of <br />making this appointment of my Agent as my attorney -in -fact for <br />health care. Having considered those consequences I do hereby <br />specifically declare that: <br />I do not desire to have my life artificially prolonged if I <br />am not able to effectively communicate with my family and my <br />doctor and if there is no reasonable expectation that I will <br />recover from any condition and thereafter be lucid and able to <br />live without the continuing artificial support. Therefore, I <br />direct that to the full extent allowed by law my attorney -in -fact <br />shall have authority to consent to the withholding or withdrawing <br />of a life - sustaining procedure or artificially administered <br />nutrition or hydration or any other medical treatment from me. <br />2 <br />
