What is the Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care Decisions?
The Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care Decisions (DPAHC) is a Nevada legal document that allows you (the principal) to designate a trusted individual as your agent to make healthcare decisions on your behalf if you become unable to communicate or make informed medical choices.
This document is governed by NRS 162A.860 and is part of Nevada's advance healthcare directive framework. Common uses include authorizing your agent to consent to medical procedures, refuse unwanted treatments, access medical records, and make end-of-life care decisions aligned with your wishes.
This form must be either notarized OR signed by two qualified witnesses to be valid. Nevada healthcare providers and facilities will not accept improperly executed documents.
