Planning for your future healthcare

If you have a serious health problem, or are concerned about medical treatment you may need in future, you might want to record your wishes about treatments you would or would not want to receive.

You may also want to think about who you would want to make decisions on your behalf if you could no longer make or communicate these for yourself.

Decisions about future healthcare are best made when you have time to think about them, and discuss them with your family and healthcare team. This guide looks at some of the options you could consider.
