mental health advance directive
PS: I was asked if I had a Mental Health Advance Directive. What is that? A: A Mental Health Advance Directive is a document that you fill out when you can make good choices about your treatment. It goes into effect if your doctor thinks you have become unable to make good decisions about your treatment. Examples of what you could put in a Mental Health Advance Directive: * Your choice of medication and treatment, * How you react to seclusion and restraint, * Your Personal Safety Plan, * You can name someone to make decisions for you if you are determined unable to do so and also you can name people to be notified if you are admitted to a psychiatric facility.
