Advanced Directives

The laws regarding advanced directives, and the forms acceptable, vary from state to state.  Many states will recognize an advanced directive prepared in another state, where the patient resides, though this is not always true.  Some authorities recommend that patients receiving care outside their state of residence consider also preparing documents for the state within which the healthcare facility they are using resides.
