Being prepared for Covid-19 means you’ve got to be prepared to protect your health, and your legal rights.
Many point to health care provider and hospital limitations as the main obstacles to surviving Covid-19 – and they may be right, and the most important thing you can do to avoid serious illness, hospitalization, and even death is boost your immune system before you get sick with Covid-19.
Likewise, protecting your legal rights – including your ability to choose for or against dangerous hospitalizations and hospital treatments means you’ve got to be prepared – legally.
Several Alaska Right to Life members and friends have died in hospitals – alone in isolation – because friends and family didn’t know their rights, and hospitals overstepped their authority.
A friend of Alaska Right to Life contacted us for help in getting a medical power of attorney arranged for a loved one in Covid Isolation at Mat-Su Regional Hospital. Unfortunately, Mat-Su Regional was unwilling to allow our friends and their loved one access to exercise their legal rights to direct their health care. Once you are admitted for Covid-19, it’s too late.
If you want to prevent serious illness, hospitalization, and loss of your rights – and even your life in the hospital, the tools and you’ll need are just below.
