What is an LPA?
A Lasting Power of Attorney is a legal document that allows a person (donor) to appoint someone they trust (donee) to make decisions on their behalf should they lose mental capacity in the future.
Our doctor will:
- Verify the donor’s identity and mental capacity.
- Ensure the donor understands the purpose and scope of the LPA.
- Complete and sign the LPA Form 1 as a certificate issuer.
