Facility Policy on Advanced Directives
Our team is dedicated to delivering the highest quality care in a safe environment that places the patient at the center of our care. The majority of procedures performed at Blake Woods Medical Park Surgery Center are considered to be of minimal risk. It is the policy of Blake Woods Medical Park Surgery Center that if an adverse event occurs during your treatment, the medical team will initiate resuscitative or other stabilizing measures and transfer you to an acute care hospital for further evaluation. At the acute care hospital, further treatment or withdrawal of treatment measures already begun will be ordered in accordance with your wishes, advance directive, or health care power of attorney.
If you do have an Advanced Directive or Living Will and wish to provide us with a copy of the document, we will place a copy in your medical record. In the unlikely event that a transfer to a hospital is required, a copy will be forwarded to the hospital.
If you do not have an Advanced Directive/Living Will and wish to create one, you may pick up a form in our lobby.
