Signing Requirements
An advance directive form must be signed by two witnesses.[1]
Unless related to the principal, neither witness can be the owner, operator, or employee of a residential healthcare facility where the principal is receiving care.
A Maine advance directive enables an individual to define their wishes regarding end-of-life medical care. These preferences may include life-prolonging treatments, pain relief, organ donation, and artificial nutrition and hydration. The form also allows for the designation of a health care agent who can make decisions on the principal’s behalf once they can no longer do so themselves.
