Health and Welfare Lasting Power of Attorney

A Health and Welfare LPA enables you to choose the person you would like to make personal decisions on your behalf, this includes;

Your attorneys can make decisions about your personal welfare, such as giving or refusing consent to particular types of health care, including medical decisions. You can include matters such as whether you would want to stay in your home with appropriate care or, if you did have to go into a care home, the issues that are important to you in the choice of a home. Attorneys can also make day-to-day decisions on your behalf in the knowledge of your wishes such as diet, dress or daily routine.

Our specialist private client solicitors can talk you through your requirements, helping you to decide which attorneys to choose and what sort of guidance you want to give to them. They can also ensure all the paperwork is correctly filled out and that your lasting power of attorney is properly registered and one that exactly reflect your wishes.
