A Representation Agreement appoints a person of your choosing to make health care and personal care decisions for you when you are no longer capable of making those decisions yourself. An Advanced Directive is a legally binding document which specifies what health care decisions you want made, in the event you are no longer capable of making those decisions yourself. An Advanced Directive is legally binding on both health practitioners and your Representative, if you have chosen one through a Representation Agreement.
