If I am married, the attorney-in-fact may not mortgage or convey my homestead property without joinder of my spouse or my spouse's legal guardian.

This designation revokes any prior health care surrogate designation which I may have made. I fully understand that this designation will permit my surrogate to make health care decisions and to provide, withhold, or withdraw consent on my behalf; to apply for public benefits to defray the costs of health care; and to authorize my admission to or transfer from a health care facility. Additional Instructions: Without limitations on the right and authority of my surrogate, my Surrogate has the authority to do the following: a) Have final authority to act for me and to make health care decisions for me in matters regarding my health care during my said incapacity; b) Consult with appropriate health care providers to provide informed consent in my best interests as the Surrogate perceives same; c) Give any consent in writing using the appropriate consent forms; d) Have access to all my appropriate clinical records and may authorize the release of information and clinical records to appropriate persons to ensure the continuity of my health care; e) Apply for public benefits, including but not limited to, Medicare and Medicaid for me, and to have access to information regarding my income and assets to the extent required to make application; f) Authorize the transfer and admissions of me to or from a health care facility; g) Withhold or withdrawal life-prolonging or death-delaying procedures in accordance with a written declaration, living will or last illness will and testaments I may have or will in the future make; h) Seek Court orders providing for the withholding and withdrawal of life-prolonging or death- delaying procedures in accordance with a living will or last illness will and testament or declaration I may have made; i) Do all acts and make all decisions regarding my health care as authorized by law.
