The Texas Directive to Physicians and Family or Surrogates, commonly known as a Living Will, is a legal document that allows individuals to express their medical treatment preferences in situations where they are unable to communicate due to illness or injury. It emphasizes the importance of discussing personal values and treatment choices with family and healthcare providers. The directive outlines options for end-of-life care, including preferences for life-sustaining treatments in terminal or irreversible conditions, and designates individuals to make healthcare decisions on behalf of the patient if necessary. The document also includes definitions of key terms related to medical treatment.
