Have you uploaded your living will in evita? The living will is a written document that specifies what types of medical treatment you desire should you become incapacitated. The new Swiss Adult Protection Law, in force since 2013, aims to accentuate self-determination. Thus as a mentally competent person you can write a living will specifying your preferences for care in the event that you lose your decision-making capability. This allows you to exercise your right to self-determination even in a situation in which you are unable to make decisions. Physicians are required to check for the existence of a living will before starting treatment in the event that you need urgent medical care.
