A patient's living will, on file and visible to the team that treats them.

What it is

A patient's advance medical directive — the treatments they do and do not want if they cannot decide for themselves — held on their record where an admitting doctor or an ICU team will actually see it, with the date it was made and by whom it was witnessed. A later directive supersedes an earlier one automatically the day it is filed.

How it works

The usual shape of a clinical record app. AdvanceDirective’s own steps are written from its screen when it ships.

  1. Open the patientThe chart opens with allergies, medicines and recent results on screen.
  2. Write itType, dictate or accept the AI draft — structured, not free text.
  3. Sign itNothing is saved until you sign; safety checks run first.

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It does not adjudicate a family's objection to the directive or make a treatment decision — it puts the patient's own written wishes in front of the clinician who has to decide.
