Nunavut Advance Health Care Directive

Does your doctor and your family know your wishes for end-of-life treatment in the event that you become physically or mentally incapacitated? Put it in writing with this Advance Health Care Directive form for Nunavut.

• An Advance Directive gives you an opportunity to leave instructions in writing regarding what types of medical treatment you want or don't want, in the event that you are diagnosed with a terminal condition or are in a coma with no real chance of recovery.
• If you wish, you can also name a person or persons that you would prefer to have appointed as your potential Guardian, to make medical decisions on your behalf if you become unable to do so.
• The form includes instructions to guide you through each section.
• This form is intended for use in Nunavut Territory. Each adult member of your family can use the same template - no need to buy separate copies.
