In this way, <strong>you preserve your right to self-determination<\/strong> and doctors can act in accordance with your wishes. This is a great relief for your relatives.  <\/p>\n\n<p>The living will is formulated in such a way that it can be applied to a variety of emergency situations. The question of life-prolonging measures is particularly important to many patients.

He or she can appoint a representative who can give instructions to doctors.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-deinadieu-faq-item\"><div class=\"inner\"><p class=\"title\" style=\"color:\"><span>Who needs a patient decree?<\/span><i><\/i><\/p><p class=\"text\" style=\"color:\">As the Swiss population is getting older, the risk of not being able to make decisions about medical measures due to incapacity of judgement increases. Medical measures offered nowadays are many and diverse, which is why it is recommended to create a patient decree.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-deinadieu-faq-item\"><div class=\"inner\"><p class=\"title\" style=\"color:\"><span>When is a patient decree valid?<\/span><i><\/i><\/p><p class=\"text\" style=\"color:\">In recent years, there have been an increasing number of reports of carelessly completed dispositions. The reason is usually the contradictory or unreliable definition of medical measures. Therefore: Fill in the medical part of the directive together with your family doctor.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-deinadieu-faq-item\"><div class=\"inner\"><p class=\"title\" style=\"color:\"><span>Can I fill out a patient decree myself?<\/span><i><\/i><\/p><p class=\"text\" style=\"color:\">Yes. However, the following is recommended: 1.) Complete the questions regarding your values and views with your representative. 2.) Define the medical instructions with a medical expert or a medical consultant (e.g. Advance Care Planning consultation).<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-deinadieu-faq-item\"><div class=\"inner\"><p class=\"title\" style=\"color:\"><span>What is an authorised representative?<\/span><i><\/i><\/p><p class=\"text\" style=\"color:\">An authorised representative ideally knows your wishes and values. In the event of your incapacity, he or she is authorized to issue instructions to the medical staff regarding medical measures. In doing so, the representative relies on the living will. When choosing a representative, make sure that they are capable of making far-reaching decisions in a crisis situation. It may therefore make more sense to choose a younger person instead of a partner.   <\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-deinadieu-faq-item\"><div class=\"inner\"><p class=\"title\" style=\"color:\"><span>What is a replacement person?<\/span><i><\/i><\/p><p class=\"text\" style=\"color:\">If the authorised representative is unable to perform this task, the replacement shall take his or her place.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-deinadieu-faq-item\"><div class=\"inner\"><p class=\"title\" style=\"color:\"><span>Why should the representative be involved in the creation of the patient decree?<\/span><i><\/i><\/p><p class=\"text\" style=\"color:\">The questions regarding the patient&#8217;s values discussed in the patient decree are a very sensitive topic. The dialogue with the representative helps the patient to answer these.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-deinadieu-faq-item\"><div class=\"inner\"><p class=\"title\" style=\"color:\"><span>When should the general practitioner\/medical consultant be involved?<\/span><i><\/i><\/p><p class=\"text\" style=\"color:\">If you want to define specific medical measures, we recommend that you discuss them with your general practitioner\/medical consultant. He or she can settle the consultation via your health insurance.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-deinadieu-faq-item\"><div class=\"inner\"><p class=\"title\" style=\"color:\"><span>Where should I keep the living will?<\/span><i><\/i><\/p><p class=\"text\" style=\"color:\">Keep your living will in a place where it can be easily found. Mark this location on your personal card.  It makes sense to store several signed versions in several places (e.g. representative person, general practitioner, replacement person).<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-deinadieu-faq-item\"><div class=\"inner\"><p class=\"title\" style=\"color:\"><span>How often should I renew the patient decree?<\/span><i><\/i><\/p><p class=\"text\" style=\"color:\">You should renew\/check your patient decree every two years.
