When an Arizonan wishes to designate a healthcare representative to decide on medical situations for them, they may do so via an advance directive. The agent appointed should come from the patient’s family member, a close acquaintance, or a member of the immediate family. There will be no restrictions on what medical decisions the agent may make that are in agreement with the patient's preferences. There are two possibilities during end-of-life care: to prolong life when feasible or to withdraw food, hydration, and breathing aid.
