Powers of attorney are legal documents that let someone appoint another person who can make decisions for them or support them to make and give effect to their own decisions. Having powers of attorney in place is recommended for all adults. None of us are immune to sudden or unexpected illness, accident or tragedy. If you have a power of attorney that person (or people) can make decisions on your behalf in the event that you are unable to do so yourself.
Making enduring powers of attorney involves appointing substitute decisions makers. The substitute decision maker can make decisions (about particular matters) for the person who appointed them in the event the person is unable to make their own decision because of illness or injury.
In Victoria, making enduring powers of attorney enables people to plan for their future:
medical treatment and personal care
management of their financial matters
personal and lifestyles matters.
Choosing the right enduring powers and the right person to appoint is important.
There are several resources available to help you decide what the best option is for you.
