Nebraska Healthcare Power of Attorney

Choosing someone to legally make medical decisions for you—if you become incapacitated—is an important decision. Our Power of Attorney document can help make the process easier to complete. Doing this gives your family peace of mind during a tough time, because they'll know you've personally selected your Nebraska Power of Attorney in advance.

Use the Nebraska Healthcare Power of Attorney document if:

• You're concerned about your healthcare and want to legally ensure that someone you trust can take control.
• You're facing a big surgery or shaky health.

Some people want to work with a lawyer or attorney when drafting their Nebraska Power of Attorney. This can be a good idea, since you're giving a lot of responsibility to someone you trust. You want to make sure the person is on the same page as you, and also lives close enough that they can get to your local hospital in case something happens. You might be considering this document because of declining health or an upcoming surgery. Those diagnosed with a terminal illness can especially benefit from having this document in place. On the other hand, you might be in great health, but it's still a smart move to plan for the future and a Power of Attorney keeps the people you trust in control.
