Virginia Advance Medical Directive Template
You may use the attached form as a template for your advance directive, but a lawyer may help you if you have additional questions or complex health care needs. The form is only a model. You can use it or numerous other forms or no form at all. Just be sure that whatever you use includes: (1) your health care wishes, (2) your signature, and (3) the signatures of two adult witnesses.
