What is another name for a health care proxy?

Yes, the term is Health Care Agent.

This is a person appointed to make health care decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so yourself.

This person is not the same as a Power of Attorney, which is a document that allows someone to act on your behalf if you are not able to do so. A power of attorney cannot act in the place of someone who is incapacitated.

You can also use the term Durable Power of Attorney. The durable aspect means it will remain valid even if you are no longer able to make decisions. However, it does not mean that the document can be used for all decisions. It is usually used to allow a person to make decisions regarding a limited set of financial issues.

How to get medical power of attorney in NJ without?

I have been through the online websites but they can't provide the help that I need.

As of now, I am a patient who is in no condition to make medical decisions and has been left behind by my husband and son. He works in another country and due to that he is unable to reach his son. He has got Alzheimer and needs constant help. Without any means of support I don't know what to do. I want to make a new life with my son because of all the reasons I gave earlier. The only thing that stops me from doing so is my husband and my son because of the emotional trauma they both give to me.

As a result, I feel compelled to sign an agreement to appoint my son as my health care representative. He will be able to make health care decisions for me and I will get financial support for them from the government if I was to get medical support from public resources. I wish to get this done in India. Unfortunately, I can't go there since my husband lives in USA and we are currently under the process of getting permanent residency.

Please provide the assistance so I don't have to undergo that emotional trauma for myself and the rest of my family. Hello: How can I obtain a power of attorney with a specific residence? I would like to get it in California, where I currently live, not Arizona, where I was born, and therefore have a different set of family members than I do in California. I do not wish to leave my California family members behind and my current legal name in California is not my real one.

Answer: A medical power of attorney allows you to communicate your wishes to your health care provider and legal authorities so that they can carry out your final wishes if necessary. You may need to consult an attorney, accountant or other professional, such as a lawyer, about the details of this procedure. This information does not provide you with legal advice. You should consult a qualified professional in the area in which you need advice, and be aware that past experiences cannot necessarily be repeated. Laws vary from state to state, and if you live outside the United States, the following information may not be relevant to you.

Power of attorney refers to the grant of authority by one person to another so that the latter may act on the former's behalf. The grant may be express or implied.

Can you have more than one health care proxy in NJ?

In my situation I have one health care proxy in New Jersey.

Can I also have another? My wife does not need one, but she needs to go to visit the doctor or hospital with me to ensure that I have someone to talk to them with me. Thanks for any input.

Answers: If you're married and have been nominated as your spouse's agent by a court of law, you are automatically nominated as his agent. It's not possible to revoke an agent once you're appointed. If you get sued and you appoint your spouse as your agent under a suit for a loss, no lawyer will tell you to withdraw the appointment (which is why, you need to get legal advice from a lawyer). You will need to consult a lawyer to know what the law says.

This depends upon where you live. In some places you have to designate a health care proxy if you have a life threatening condition. If you have a life threatening condition and don't designate a proxy, then the hospital can decide who gets to make decisions on your behalf.

It was decided during the Clinton Administration to pass anti-trust law that would allow a provider to sue the patient for malpractice when they "froze" patients on the floor for more than X minutes. This had been done for years to prevent lawsuits against nursing homes and doctors. The insurance companies knew that they were being sued for thousands of dollars for each claim.

A "life threatening condition" is one that requires immediate life saving treatment, and there is always a danger that if you go to a different hospital the care might be slightly different, for example they might not be willing to treat your heart attack as fast as another hospital would, which could lead to a heart attack, but you could still have time to make a call on your cell phone and they could still save your life, but it just goes to show how far we are from a fair society, where the patient's rights to life saving care and treatment is not limited by government restrictions and regulations. You could always ask the doctor or nurse about this ahead of time. Most doctors and nurses respect patients and want to be able to discuss issues with them before the moment of truth, so I think they would probably let you know, but then again, some people take things so literally.

In my practice (in California), no.
