Neil Winger, a primary care physician at UCLA Health Ethics Center, discusses advance directives, which are legal documents allowing individuals to specify their treatment preferences when they cannot make decisions for themselves. He highlights the importance of shared decision-making between doctors and patients, but acknowledges that patients may be unable to communicate due to illness or emergencies. In such cases, advance directives help designate a trusted person—like a spouse, sibling, or friend—to make medical decisions on their behalf. This ensures that healthcare providers have clear guidance on the patient’s wishes when they cannot express them.
