Your Right to Make Decisions Sample Clauses

Your Right to Make Decisions. You have the right to make your own medical decisions, to manage your personal affairs and to access your medical records as permitted by law. If you become incapable of making your own decisions, it may be necessary for someone else to make decisions for you. For this reason, we recommend that you make advance directives for medical decisions and appoint a Power of Attorney for financial decisions, but you are not required to do so. It is recommended that you consult with an attorney to prepare a financial Power of Attorney. As part of the admission process, you will be given a description of your legal rights to decide about your future medical treatment, as well as information about making advance directives. If you make an advance directive, you should provide the Facility with a copy.
