Ans: A
Feedback:
Living wills are documents in which clients describe their wishes regarding treatment intended to sustain life. A healthcare proxy or durable power of attorney for healthcare is a person designated to make decisions for the client if he or she is unable to do so. The healthcare proxy is responsible for medical decisions only if the client is unable to do this and does not have legitimate input into any other areas of the client's affairs. Decision making around the time of death raises many legal and ethical questions. Advance directives such as a living will can help with these question, though may not necessarily represent a guarantee that the client's wishes will be carried out.
