In this tutorial, Dr. Neil Winger, a primary care physician and member of the UCLA Health Ethics Center, discusses advance directives. An advance directive is a legal document that outlines a person's medical preferences if they become unable to make decisions. This situation may arise when patients are too ill or incapacitated to communicate. While collaborative decision-making between doctors and patients is ideal, unforeseen circumstances may prevent this. Therefore, advance directives designate a trusted individual—such as a spouse, sibling, or close friend—who can make decisions on the patient’s behalf. This ensures that healthcare providers know whom to consult regarding the patient’s wishes during critical times.
