Help please? what is the paper called that you sign to allow doctors to pull life support?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not always needed: Durable power of attorney or medical proxie. If you are the next of kin and no one else then the desicion falls to you. Each state has different legal terms. Need to follow your state laws and if in a hospital the ask your social worker. They will know alll answers.
