India Embraces Living Wills: Your Voice in Healthcare

India Embraces Living Wills: Your Voice in Healthcare

Imagine writing down how you want to be cared for when you're very sick and can't speak.

That's like a Living Will.

It tells doctors what treatments you want or don't want if you have a disease that won't get better.

You can even pick someone to help make those choices for you.

Clinics exist to help people understand Living Wills and make sure they follow the law.

These Wills let you decide what happens to your body, respecting your wishes and dignity.

It's like a medical consent form, and it is still a new concept in India.
