While many Oregonians have advance directives for health care, there are other documents they can use to help shape the kinds and extent of health care they want as they age. This course explores directives, health care representation, HIPAA rules, physicians’ orders for life-sustaining treatment (POLST), and Oregon’s Death With Dignity law to help students guide their own decision-making and care.
