Take Control of Your Health Care
A complete estate plan includes documents that put you in control of your health care. These documents, known as advance directives, let you choose who should make medical decisions for you if you’re unable to communicate. You can also provide that person with guidance about what kinds of treatments you’d like to receive and those you’d like to avoid.
24/7 Protection for You & Your Family
Your doctors and loved ones need to have a copy of your advance directives when you’re hospitalized so they know your wishes. It’s impossible to predict emergencies, and it’s impractical to carry around a pile of papers all the time. If your advance directives are unavailable, your loved ones may argue or leave your side to search for them.
We want to make sure stressful hospital visits go as smoothly as possible for you and your loved ones. That’s why you’ll receive a complimentary DocuBank membership when you complete your estate plan at Hobson-Williams P.C. This unique service lets your family and doctors immediately access your advance directives right from the hospital.
Carry Your Documents Right in Your Wallet
Your DocuBank Emergency Card is the key to accessing your advance directives. Simply keep it in your wallet and your documents are right there with you! Your card lets you, your loved ones, or the hospital staff immediately get a copy of your documents by fax or the internet—24 hours a day.
That means that your loved ones will know your wishes and won’t have to argue over who should make decisions and what you’d want.
