Advance Medical Directive (AMD)

An Advance Medical Directive (AMD) is a legal document that allows a person to voluntarily state their wishes in advance, should they become terminally ill and unconscious, to not have extraordinary life-sustaining treatment administered

This brochure made available by the Ministry of Health (MOH) is a useful summary of what an AMD entails.
