Power of Attorney: Making your wishes clear

If you are considering giving Power of Attorney to a loved one, we understand that this may feel overwhelming. Choosing the right attorney and making your wishes clear is essential.

Choosing the right person

You should trust the person you choose to follow your wishes. You can appoint more than one attorney.

Discussing your wishes

Raise the issue with family before making your Power of Attorney. Discuss both financial and care matters.

Advanced statement

You can set out your wishes in a document known as an advanced statement, including preferences about day-to-day care and medical care.
