General Treatment Preference Statement
总体治疗偏好声明
A free-text space for you to describe your general wishes regarding medical treatment — for example, under what circumstances you would or would not want life-sustaining treatment, what matters most to you in your care, or other guidance for your agent and providers. Write in your own words. Your specific state form may structure this section differently.
An adult witness who signs to confirm they observed the principal signing this document voluntarily. State requirements vary, but witnesses generally may not be your health care agent, your healthcare provider, or a beneficiary of your estate.
A second adult witness, subject to the same requirements as Witness 1. Having two witnesses is standard across most states, though the specific eligibility rules differ. Check your state's advance directive requirements.
Some states require a notary public to witness and stamp the document in addition to the two witnesses. Other states accept witnesses alone. This field indicates whether notarization applies — check your specific state's advance directive law to confirm.
