Idaho Living Will


I. Introduction

This Living will is deliberately created and executed by [YOUR NAME], who is of sound and composing mind and understanding. My primary purpose in making this living will is to assert and specify my desires and preferences towards my medical treatment, including life-prolonging procedures and end-of-life care, in the regrettable circumstance where I may not bear the capacity to do so myself due to incapacitation or any form of physical or mental debility.

  • Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR): Do Not Resuscitate

  • Mechanical ventilation: Not to be used

  • Artificial nutrition and hydration: Only if necessary for comfort

  • Dialysis: Not to be used


III. End-of-Life Care Preferences

If my attending physician determines that I have an incurable or irreversible condition that will cause my death imminently, I request the following:

  • Comfort Care: I request to receive medication and care focused on keeping me comfortable and alleviating pain.

  • Palliative Care: I desire palliative care that prioritizes quality of life over the prolongation of life.

  • Location of Care: I prefer to receive end-of-life care at Home.
