Make your Free
Illinois Healthcare Power of Attorney

If you know exactly who you trust to make medical decisions for you, an Illinois Power of Attorney can help make it legal. The person you choose is only able to make healthcare choices for you if you become incapacitated. Protect yourself and reduce the stress on your family during tough times by having a Power of Attorney in place.

Use the Illinois Healthcare Power of Attorney document if:

• You want to legally assign a trusted person to be in charge of your healthcare if you become incapacitated.
• You have declining health or major surgeries coming up.

It's smart to prepare for worst-case scenarios, whether you're in perfect health or have been diagnosed with a serious illness. Our Illinois Power of Attorney ensures that decision-making is kept in the hands of someone you trust. You can assign one person to be in charge, and you can also appoint alternates. Some people prefer to work with a doctor or lawyer when preparing this document since it's giving your future decision-maker a lot of responsibility. Open conversations are very useful, as they'll be helpful in selecting someone who will do what you want and lives close by. Signing over a Power of Attorney is the only way to ensure the person you've selected has the ability to make medical choices for you if you're unable to.
