Where will it be filed?
The provisions in the case of a voluntary guardianship are provisions for the attention of the adult protection authorities and medical staff stating your wishes in the event that you lose capacity (coma, degenerative illnesses).
Advance directives govern the circumstances in which you would like to refuse/continue/stop medical treatment, but you are incapable of saying so.
You will then mention yourself the person who may represent you in the case of incapacity.
These documents bind the authorities who may not in principle reject their content.
Do I need advance directives?
When you are capable of discernment, you can decide yourself or with management specialists on your day-to-day affairs/assets.
When you are incapacitated (Alzheimer’s, dementia, coma), you are no longer able to produce deeds and make decisions.
Drafting advance directives: you communicate your own wishes to your loved ones for whom such situations are a heavy emotional burden.
You can draft make decisions today on medical issues.
