When a hospital asks, “What would they want us to do?” most families freeze—because guessing in a crisis is brutal. In this video, I explain the Healthcare Directive (also called a Living Will or Advance Directive) in plain English, and I debunk the biggest myths—especially the confusion between a Healthcare Directive vs Medical Power of Attorney (MPOA/HPOA).

You’ll learn what this document does, what it doesn’t, how it’s different from the other 4 critical estate planning documents, and why hospital paperwork isn’t always enough.


✅ What You’ll Learn
• What a Healthcare Directive / Living Will / Advance Directive actually is
• Healthcare Directive vs MPOA/HPOA: WHO decides vs WHAT you want
• Why “Living Will = DNR” is a myth
• Common terms people mix up: DNR, DNI, POLST/MOLST, hospice vs palliative
• Why planning ahead beats rushed hospital forms
• A simple “3 questions” framework to clarify your wishes
• When you should consider getting professional legal help
