PLEA gratefully acknowledges our primary core funder the Law Foundation of Saskatchewan for their continuing and generous support of our organization.
A health care directive is used when you cannot make your own decisions or tell people what treatment you want or do not want. A health care directive is sometimes called a living will. There are important things to know before making a directive.
The law sets out the requirements for making a valid health care directive.
Health care professionals can only follow your directive if they know you have one and what it contains.
If you choose not to create a health care directive, the law sets out who can make health care decisions for you when you cannot.
The Regina Public Library and Saskatoon Public Library are hosting free Law Fair events during Saskatchewan Access to Justice Week to connect people with free legal information, assistance, and support. Attend to acquire legal knowledge and to broaden awareness of legal rights and responsibilities!
